Doing our Part!

   We are due to part in less then two months and it got me thinking about conservation measures and doing our part on the journey. While I will be attending online classes for college while we travel, I also couldn't help, but wanting to do something more some how. To make the trip worth more, by sharing our love and admiration for the world with others.

    While researching this topic I have stumbled by a few websites that peak my interest and will find ourselves becoming some how involved with while we travel.  The first one is a plankton monitoring system, where we would take plankton samples and record the information to be sent to the university to go into the database so we could monitor the earth's levels.  Since 50% of the world's plankton are in the marine environment this seems like a just cause.

   The second site I ran across was a YachtAid Global, which uses the power of the cruisers to move supplies to locations in need. Since most sailors are traveling around from one place to another, and usually have room for extra supplies, hopefully we get the opportunity to help either of these organizations.  While these are two avenues of a way for us to give back to the world while we travel, we will be on the look out for more!  If you have any ideas, please drop us a line!
