Vacation, Part 2

One of my favorite things to do is watch wild critters. I went on a little boat to see the seals at Catalina Island. There were several "rafts" of them. They tie into kelp beds to sleep and raise their flippers to keep cool. One came to the boat to sight see back at us.

In Ensenada, Mexico...
This is "La Bufadora" which the guide told us means, Buffalo Snort. Cute, huh! Chelley and Lorraine saw it from the top, Bruce and David kayaked to it and enjoyed that very much. It sprayed way high to us at the top so it must have seemed way huge from sea level.
