Paragliding is a popular sport in this area. Part of me would like to try it, but part of me thinks that would not turn out well.
These little shore birds were running all over the sand looking for something to eat. I think they are a kind of sandpiper, but there were larger ones, too. If you look closely at the headland in the distance, you will see a lighthouse. That's where we drove next.
On the south side of the headland, near the lighthouse, is an area where harbor seals like to rest on the rocks. We could see some far below. In my photo they look like fish!
Spring wildflowers were blooming in profusion. I don't know the name of this variety. Do you? Please post in the comments if you can identify them.
Later in the afternoon, Daughter drove to the nearby wayside parking area and walked the beach at low tide in search of sand dollars. She found quite a few of them. The sky had begun to cloud over, so this is as close to a pretty sunset as we got during our stay.
I find everything about your trip very nice, reading you I have started to think about what I am going to do with my cat this year when I have to leave. I think I should buy a special box to take her with me.
Your photos look beautiful, very well taken, they make me sigh. My favorite is the photo of the lighthouse and the wild flowers.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the posts. I have one more to write, and then I should be done with my trip report. I have mixed feelings about traveling with pets. It makes it a bit more difficult to find a place to stay, and it alters what one can do on the trip, depending on the pet. But then they aren't stuck in a boarding place.
I just talked to my husband about it, I have already found a special box to take my cat with me everywhere, nobody will take care of her like me.
When we go on a trip to the Andes it is a 15 hour drive and we stay there for almost a month. I don't want to bother the neighbors for so long.
She is now like my daughter, I wouldn't have the heart to leave her at home.
I am a cat lover, too, so I totally understand! Glad you found a solution.
What a thrill! Being able to see whales... I dream of that. Your photos are absolutely beautiful.
Thank you so much! Yes, the whales were a special treat, even from a distance.

Dear @scribblingramma, we need your help!
The Hivebuzz proposal already got important support from the community. However, it lost its funding a few days ago and only needs a few more HP to get funded again.
May we ask you to support it so our team can continue its work this year?
You can do it on Peakd, ecency,

Your support would be really helpful and you could make a difference.
Thank you!
I'll get someone to show me how to do that.
