13/12/2011

Like yesterday today I took a whole bunch of pictures, we went to another two islands inhabited by sea lions and other cool and interesting creatures – as shown below in the pics added to this post.
We did some snorkeling from the dinghy around rock formations with sea caves and where I again got to play with those uber friendly sea lions that seem only to sneak up on you unexpectedly when snorkeling.
The second island named Espaniola we went to was just unbelievable with such a variety of birds, other animals and terrain. The 3 hours of walking around the island we saw so much from sandy beaches to shear cliff drops, open plains, light shrubbery inhabited by albatross and unusual lava buildups that the sea lions, blue footed boobies and iguanas loved so much – again as I have said before, the pictures below dont give this island justice but I did the best I could. I almost find it a shame to always be looking through the viewfinder of my camera instead of just enjoying the experience first hand...
