August 17, 2004
We sailed twice today, first with a group through the New Bedford YWCA and later with a group of homeschoolers. Both groups had so much great energy for exploring the ship and coastal environment and explored global historical and cultural connections enabled by trade and commerce based out of New Bedford.

Reflections on learning about natural resources.

A seaworthy crew....

Marine life abounds with a close-up of a crab pulled from Ernestina's aquarium.

Watch those claws!

Historical connections are discussed with Anthropologist Traudi Coli.

Photos from the Port of New Bedford past are compared to today.

We can orient ourselves in the world.

Haul away together!
