Oceans apart
What a marvellous feeling: Having nothing to do, nowhere to be, no one to see except caring for sea turtles on the Guatemalan Pacific Coast. Lina has spent most of her time lying in hammocks, sleeping, eating and practising her Spanish with the locals. Dean has helped to build a new watch tower for the sea turtle conservation project. At night, we walk along the beach looking for newly laid sea turtle eggs to be buried in the hatchery. When they hatch, the volunteers send the baby turtles to the sea. Dean took this photo just before sunset and after a storm. He liked the sunset light coming through the storm clouds. Lina is looking out at the Pacific Ocean, where Parramatta is just over the other side. This photo, like all the others on this blog, has not been digitally altered.
