For me it was very interesting, that the mangrove don‘t need any insects to pollitate!

I found very interesting today what I learned about nature. I already knew a lot about the mangroves, but I was not aware of the fact that there are birds that fear the rats. Moreover, I did not expect rats to be on a mangrove island in the middle of the ocean. That was the simple explanation why all birds were in one island while there were none in all the other islands around. This shows that in nature, nothing happens per chance. Everything has a reason. Unfortunately because of the rain I didn’t take any pictures so I chose the picture that showed the great food we received and how much fun we all had on that beautiful trip.

Today I realized again how beautiful and fragile our environment ist at the same time. I knew with Mangrove forests, but the task of the yellow leaf was absolutely new for me.

Today I learnt lot about the underwater World and how e.g. the fish use the trees as a nursery. I immensely enjoyed all the snorkeling activities and learning about the eco system.

The different snorkel sites and islands showed me how exciting nature is and how individual species are perfectly adapted to the habitat.

I also learned how important teamwork is.

Today I learned that the mangroves here on Guadeloupe produce more oxygen than the Amazon Rainforest. It was also very interesting to know how the mangroves fertilize themselves.

Today was a wonderful day. I learned a lot of information about the local ecosystem. I was extremely interested in the corals, which are said to be dying out due to the global warming. Those, we have seen, have learned, or perhaps are learning better, to adapt and grow. Which, however, is not a solution, because it cannot be adapted to infinity. However, I spent a very nice day with good people.

The Czech team really enjoyed it today, we didn't even mind a few drops of rain. On the way back and throughout the evening, we talked and laughed for a long time.

today i learned a lot about the ecosystem of guadeloupe. I realized again how important it is to protect nature.

The principle of the functions operating in any ecosystem is similar to a bearing wheel. If one ball falls out of the chain, nearly nothing happens. The wheel still works, not in 100%, but works. If one species in ecosystem is on the decrease or disappears, the ecosystem still works. The more balls fall out of the chain, the heavier bearing wheel works and one day stops working at all. The same process passes in the ecosystem that disappears in the end, fortunately. The bearing wheel can be replaced by a new one, but in the nature? No more chances are given. Humans can still not understand it and will pay a harsh bill for that.

Yesterday, I learned a lot of about natural heritage in Guadeloupe. Under mangrove trees live a lot of different spices of fishes and I was really interesting in a tree of birds, cause two various spices of birds live together in symbiosis.

I passed a day full of new experiences. Our groupe has merged, we had a lot of fun and interesting conversations togehter.

We all did the same thing but everybody had another mission and looked at the same event with other eyes.

That's what it happens with the pupils when we're on a school trip like an exchange. Everybody focusses other things and so everybody has another piece of a puzzle that forms the collective impression at the end.

My photo of the day remembers our techer's mission while accompanying our pupils: broaden their horizon.

I learnt a lot about the ecosystems and we got a lot of interesting information about the mangrooves, corals, birds and fish living in or close to the sea. Again I learnt that the weather does what it wants to do and that heavy rain and sun can change within a few minutes, which is really rare in Germany. We all had a great day together!
