Seal Pups...Isla Islotes

The seal pups at Isla Islotes deserve some spotlight. I loved reading the comments on facebook in regards to the follow the leader video. A friends comment was " Ok this is getting ridiculous". He was of coarse kidding, but Bret and I both laughed thinking " I know right?" I'm not saying they were any better than the Pilot whales,turtles, or dolphin, but who am I kidding that's like trying to choose an ice cream flavor. They are all SAWEET!! Babies are inquisitive and extra playful. Tallen and one of the pups played ring around the rosie. Later Rawly was in a game of fin tug. The pup would tug Rawlys fin then hang there and wait for Rawly to tug back. I had to get in on this, and when Rawly found the under water tunnels I was in! We took turns swimming down through the crevasses in the rocks. Each time followed by our little buddy. The whole time we were in the water I kept thinking how amazing it was that this seal pup was playing with us. Maybe it was he who was getting us to preform tricks and not the other way around.

This little guy just kept hanging around upside down eyeing the go-pro

We caught 2 pups passing a shell back and forth, then we played a game of follow the leader.

La Paz founders day festival. Hot fresh churros while you wait.

Ok so I am not a cat lady, but I have definitely become the weird puppy lady!  

Tallen in the van to Cabo. We had such an amazing visit!

We just can't get enough of the Platino! 

No need to wait in line at the concession stand. Seat side ordering!

 I try to take life 24 hours at a time and am always amazed how quickly that time goes by. It's crazy that 7 months have gone by.  We will spend the next few days in La Paz. In about 6 weeks we will be putting the boat away for the summer in Guaymas on the mainland.
Que Sera.

Ciao for now,

Marne and Bret

 Tallen provided this during our cave exploration. Well done!

                         

Fishing palapas on the beach in Caleta Partida. 

Shrines are everywhere in Latin America. Along the roadside, in town, and even on a small fishing beach. Sweet reminders for me everywhere for gratitude and a power greater than myself.

 This was home with the boys for a few days. The Liahona is barely visible in the background.

In town shenanigans. 

Running low on provisions we needed to hit a larger store for some staples. Having the boys on board made the trip for groceries a much easier task than the norm. Mega is our favorite grocery store in Mexico. 

A movie before shopping is a treat indeed. A movie with air conditioning, reclining leather chairs, a waiter to take your order chair side and deliver your food to you is AMAZING! All this for under $4.00 per person. 

Rawly teaching me to salsa while waiting for tacos. 

Racing in the Baha is a big event. Pretty cool to watch it all go down.

Rawly getting on the  bus to San Jose del Cabo. Saying goodbye is always a little tough.

Damage from the reef. The blog  SV Liahona.com has the full story. Every experience is a learning experience.

Started today with a little much needed maintenance. My Spanish is getting better but I am always glad to find English speaking meetings. Thanks for suiting up and showing up my friends.
