A casual night at BIOS

One of the many things I love about my friends here at BIOS is their passion for their work...and play!!

Keeley and Leah are conducting an extensive reef video survey with their mentor along the rim reef during the day, but they were also excited to look at the reef dynamics at night (they are extremely different). The goal of the night was to do short "drops" (aka throw the goPro off the dock) to look at which light and filter should be used for their night surveys.






While this was going on.... Dave decided he wanted to outdo Oli and come up with more unique way to get to the airport on Saturday. So with the help of the other REUs he built a raft.
