Day 11: Thursday May 19th

 Today was our last day working the kiosk. It was rainy so it took longer than usual to get to work. Since it was so rainy and the mall is mostly outdoors, not many people were there. We had some fun trying our best to close as fast as possible when the rain blew into our kiosk. It was an exciting day due to the weather but not so much for sales. Since we finished our requirements we are getting on a plane tonight to continue researching at home. I ate a burrito as well.

Day 4: Thursday May 12th

 Today we woke up early and got a lovely head start to our day by getting a smoothie. Afterwards, we made our way to Huntington Beach for another day at the Kiosk. We sold some merchandise and again voiced our support for the Marine Mammal Rescue Center.  It was much warmer today than it was yesterday. I felt as though we were really making a difference with the attention we were bringing to the center. For lunch Mallie and I took a journey to the grocery store to find some snacks. It was definitely hard to keep our vegan mindset as we were tempted. We found some good vegan options and then went back to work. In the evening we ate some soup and watched the sunset.

Day 2, Tuesday May 10th

 Today Mallie and I received a tour of the Marine Mammal Rescue center. We saw Harbor seals, Elephant seals and sealions. They were all in various stages of recovery and it was sad to see many of the newest ones were malnourished. We got to see all the good work being done at the center to rehabilitate these creatures and then release them back into the wild. After the tour, Mallie and I traveled down to Huntington Beach to receive our training at their kiosk. We learned the ins and outs of how to work there and began preparations for selling merchandise and informing people about the center. We can't wait to share all that we have learned at the center during Express Fest!

Day 12: Friday May 20th

 Today I got back to my house at around 1 pm. It was actually much warmer than it had been in California. I unpacked to wash my clothes when I got to my room. The time had really flown by and I cant believe I am almost graduating. Working with the center was super fun and gave me more experience with customer service. It was a good trip but I am glad to be home.
