Day 83: Locate a Sea Turtle's Nest

Day one of vacation   resulted in an explosion of excitement and energy among six rather childish adults. The cloudy skies did not dampen our spirits. We enjoyed the scene from the porch and an occasional beach walk that got increasingly more difficult as the day went on. We did locate a sea turtle nest that was expected to hatch. The official watchers of the eggs were stationed around the nest eagerly awaiting the 180 plus newborns. Marilyn was much more committed to watching this event unfold. She recalled the last hatching when she was given a prized glove to help usher the creatures along the path. After walking to the nest, I opted to return to the porch where loud music and talking were accepted and appreciated; where as Marilyn sat quietly in the dark waiting patiently.
