Swim babies, swim!

Hello out there!

Yesterday was busy and amazing! I was too tired to post pictures last night, but now I might even have enough energy to write a little, yay!

We have weekends off this season which is nice, so yesterday we went exploring a little. We spent some time on the beach and swimming in the Atlantic (I'm sure all the Canadians reading this are turning green right now), then we explored the old slave cabin ruins, check out the hornbills again, had a bonfire, and most importantly we had the opportunity to be part of a loggerhead sea turtle release! So last night at dusk we drove out to the beach (after getting lost twice) and cast about 30 baby sea turtles into the ocean! My life is complete now, I can die happy!


Spot the bird






For some reason this seemed like a good idea at the time...

Gator!

This picture isn't very good, but they were locking beaks and I thought that was really cool!
