I was standing outside last night watching the school of mahi mahi fish with Takashi, a Japanese scientist on board. He turned to me and said, “I’m getting sick of these fish, I’m ready for some new ones.” I laughed and said, “…This is the best tv we got, and you want to change the channel?” At that moment, I realized there may be a chance we’ve become a little spoiled by this experience.

So here’s a look back at the last few weeks – events that have become so normal to me, I don’t realize how bizarre they must look to outside observers.
