I went to work with Lauren today. This is the Otago Marine lab, where Lauren grinds sea urchin guts/ muscles into a fine powder in the name of science. In addition to being a really cool lab it sits on a beautiful spot on the peninsula. I helped Lauren grind for a little while, and when the rain cleared out i went for a walk in the sheep pastures around the lab. there is a great walking path along the harbor, very scenic despite being covered in sheep poo.
