]]> Comment on News from the Coconut Current by Jenna http://sanibelseaschool.org/blog/2012/01/10/news-from-the-coconut-current/#comment-1912 Jenna Mon, 23 Jan 2012 15:49:45 +0000 http://sanibelseaschool.org/blog/?p=1995#comment-1912 Wow! Thanks for your comment, Linda. Deerfield beach is by far the furthest destination any of our coconuts have been found! It must have floated all the way around the tip of Florida. Cas did a great job painting his coconut so that it would be noticeable. It is always exciting when we can put together a whole history of the coconut, from the original artist and launch to the final recipient. Thanks so much for your help with our study! Wow!

I believe it has e number 4 painted on it, but it is definitely the one pictured in the photo being painted by Cas Philips.

They loved both Brendan and Jenna and the activities they planned for them. The art projects really drew them in. They look forward to thier visits to Sea School with much anticipation each year. Every visit has included new adventures, encounters with naturea and lessons. I don't think it will ever get old for them. Keep up the good work!
