Entry 29 - Day 13

I've finally set foot on the island and this alien structure is no less awe inspiring from the outside.  I mean, I've spent days under the sea, struggling to survive, and this was here the whole time.  It's blowing my mind!



There are other signs of alien life on this island too, like these marker stones or whatever they are that seem to litter the place.  They're dull grey, like slate, until you get close to them and then they start to glow, just like the walls inside the structure.


The rest of the place is luscious and green, with soft sand under foot.  These trees grow here, which the scanner calls Bulbo Trees, and they seem to store water which can literary be squeezed from their flesh when you cut them.  It's sweet, like melon juice, and definitely taste better than the disinfected water I've been drinking.

There are also these little, four-legged, crab-like things scampering around.  They have one big eye, which seems to take up most of their bodies, and they jump at you to try and bite.  I've had to kill a couple with my knife after they bit me a few times, but I think I've learned to avoid them now.



Anyway, it's getting late and the Sunbeam should be landing sometime in the early morning, so I'm going to try and get some sleep.  I've got a belly full of Bulbo Tree, I've explored an alien ruin and I'm laid on the best beach in this sector; I'd say that's a pretty good last night on this planet.


Ryley out.
