Revolutional Trip

Arran Residential Fieldtrip 2007 (24-31 August 2007)
Isle of Arran, Scotland.

A great experience, of style & quality programmes organised throughout the week. Few things that i learnt:
1. Try to understand other's culture, otherwise you could be misunderstood
(i showed 'em a peace sign, but they told me that the sign meant something else!)
2. Bring only necessary items. Travel light.
(need loads of 'pensel kayu', colour pencil. T-shirts? a few, recycle)
3. Ask questions as specific as possible.
4. Appreciate everyone individually
5. 3 counts on small-scale work, 1 count on d bigger picture
(to ensure that we're on track)

a lot of 'em.
A new self-revolution has started. Uniformitarianism (adapted by James Hutton's idea on the Earth's tectonic activity)

Cruising on one posh ship!
With Prof Paul Pearson, an expert in Paleoclimate, one of the best in the UK
Such scenic view (ice cold water!)
Taking 'Dip & Strike', our usual routine
Some fossils huh?
I just love this picture. Trying to look at the hill's geology on Hutton's view
Collecting information on top of the hill
Lunch break: A pack of Walkers, a chocolate snack bar, sandwich, an apple & plain water.
Mospy, one nice Nigerian-American friend
Sitting on a granite outcrop halfway up the North Glen Sannox hill
The Doon Coast. Just look at those dykes!
Evidence of a past glacial event
Taking some data on a medium-scale cross-bedding sandstone outcrop.
