scuba diving in tenerife, sooo much fun - you should try it, if you haven't !
It was so close that i would had touch it but the scuba instructor pulled me back :/
A turtle, three workmen, a dog and I. What do we have in common? We were all in the same place doing different things.
Maybe it was just me but besides being ridiculously hot, the tour of the turtle farm was pretty miserable. It was sad seeing the miserable conditions they were being "farmed" in. There were way too many turtles in each enclosure, climbing one on top of another for air. There was also something creepy about that many animals, in constant motion, and totally silent...
It made me glad to be a mammal.
At the turtle farm on Grand Cayman they had big pools with giant turtles swimming in them. Some of the turtle pens opened onto a beach area that the turtles could climb up on. I think it was just too hot at the time of day that we were there and so the turtles were all piled up in the pools to keep cool.
The first turtle I've seen in 2009. I went on to see about 30 more today, including a snapping turtle.
Our turtle, Murphy, is still molting. The bits of shell that you can see curling up are called scutes.
Day 30 of 365.
These little guys seemed pretty relevant to todays environmental club meaning.
Tortoises are so damn cute.
Raule runs a solid pet shop and is an incredible dog trainer.
Nice to be able to finally go to a real local pet shop.
Also nice to see other father son teams working together.
