Sitting on a dock of the bay
The Otis Redding song title seemed appropriate for this picture. Haha.
Ember is sitting on a concrete dock in La Paz, BCS. The small sections are connected by chain, and bob up and down when you walk on them. They had plastic PVC pipes in them, probably to aid in flotation, but concrete itself can float, depending on the composition. In WWI, the US built 12 ships out of concrete as a test project, due to the shortage of steel. I've walked on one of them, which is now a pier in Aptos, California, known as "the cement ship".
Another little trivia bit, La Paz is sort of a bay, within a bay, within a bay.
