Beautiful pix, Diane. Did you overnight at the lagoon, or day-trip it from town?

This was San Ignacio and we spent the night so we could drive out to the lagoon really early. We did, however, drive home to Bahia Asuncion after we went out.

;D Knew it was San Ignacio by the Kuyima logo on one of the pangas. Did you happen to get over to Rice & Beans and check out whether they really are charging $8 for a margarita?

Yea, the Kuyima is a dead give away--slapping head now. :yes:

Can't help you on the $8. margarita---we don't go to Rice and Beans anymore.

Thanks---it was a great day, and yes, that first picture could not have been set-up----everyone sitting so tall and nice.

The adults are great, but the babies are so cute. We also got some pretty x-rated pix--maybe I should post one in off-topic.

Oh, what the heck----here is one of the x-rated photos---was quite a show.



Diane

Great pix. Here's just a couple of facts that might interest you. That "item" seen in the last pic is correctly called a dork. That's the origin of the term. In an earlier pic, those are not really barnacles, as in the parasitic mollusks that attach themselves to ship hulls. They are a natural growth on the whale similar to facial hair on humans.



All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

Diane,

You might consider backing down on the saturation level a bit in photoshop. Particularly in that first image.

Oso,

There are a group of specialized barnacles that have evolved to live only on whales. I think that's what Diane is showing.

Hey Diane, you can't fool me. The first boatload folks are not the same as in the second one:P:lol:

Pretty cool though, thanx.

Oso, I think Skipjack is correct.

The whiskers are called "vibrassae" and are akin to a cat's whiskers.
