If you want to go to the island tomorrow, we have to leave at 9am, we won't get back until 2pm at the earliest, and cost is just over 20 pounds. Dr. Peres says it is AMAZING, but that is extra costs and travel, making it a very long day. So I leave it up to you. Those who want to go, meet me at 8:55 at the reception center. Those who stay, let's meet at 2:30 in the computer lab when we get back. Sound good?
