WE LOVE k12!! Thanks for the chat, cannot wait to show you more behind-the-scenes videos and photos from our voyages. Please don't hesitate to start discussions in the Channels that interest you most!
We are back in the United States for just a few days before heading off on our next sea adventure! Starting next week you will find our reports from Bermuda and footage from our spectacular cruise aboard the research vessel, Atlantic Explorer!
Latest Note from Captain Lovejoy: Latest Note from Tonia and Shannon in Bermuda : Shannon and I are at the BIOS campus in Saint George, Bermuda on their research ship, which is the safest place to be - totally independent power and communication. Shannon is the only EMT on campus and has been requested to stay with the students and educators in the school library, their safest building. I will stay on the ship. We just had a briefing and it looks like the eye will pass about 2am - we are expecting to feel the winds around 9pm. It is a category 4 right now, which is pretty serious and more than Bermuda has seen in a few years. However, everyone seems well prepared and smart - backups for food, power, water, etc. I will write again later today, but know that I am safe and in good hands. The ship is massive and and the captain and crew are excellent - looks to be in good form on the dock. (The crew are all from the Philippines and everyone has worked on the ship, which travels around the world for 100+ days at sea in the N. Atlantic, for about 10 years together).
Hello Beautiful Nation followers! A quick update on Tonia and Shannon, who are currently in Bermuda, where Hurricane Gonzalo is headed. They are safe, but expecting a category 4. If you have been tracking the hurricane, you can also learn more about the Saffir-Simpson scale for measuring wind strength: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutsshws.php
What a brilliant presentation last at the Wilmington, NC library about the Beautiful Nation project and the upcoming Voyage of Makulu! It was also a stirring reminder of how the world's oceans do, indeed, make us all part of one nation where we can peacefully learn from one another .
Thank You, Cap'n Tonia! We'll see about getting more local schools involved and on board..
I will be on the air at 12:06pm EST today @http://whqr.org/ talking about the Beautiful Nation Project and what it means to be a global citizen today! Tune in online or turn your dial if you are in the Wilmington, NC area!
