Seals

This morning we packed up the car and got on the road again. We drove several hours and stopped for lunch at The Store (The Store is restaurant name). The last thirty minutes in the car was right next to the ocean. At one point we started to see a couple of seals basking in the sun on rocks. We pulled over and got out of the car to look at them. Then we realized that there were hundreds of them along the shoreline. Some were fighting and making cool noises and some were getting out of the ocean. When we had seen enough we got back on the road again. We stopped to see a small waterfall that was close to the ocean. Apparently in the winter up to two hundred seal pups frolic in the pool below the waterfall. After we unpacked our stuff in our room we went out to a small aquarium. I learned that there are wild seahorses in the area. Then we got to go out for dinner. Dad had crayfish (rock lobster) for dinner. When he was finished I cracked the shell and got more meat for him. I had lamb for dinner. It was delicious!

  1. Hi, Ryan,
    That's my spot! I didn't really want to leave my table at The Store. What about all those seals - way cool. And the hut - a great playhouse. And the food - looks mighty good!
    Love, Grandma M
