On the way to spot a nesting turtle:
Waiting....:
Bag checker visit :
@ sunset, one came out of the water and we waited as long as she found a place to nest before visiting her. We waited that she layed her eggs before any picture, of course:
She is now covering her eggs by throwing sand behind her:
It takes a long time (around 3 hours since the left the water):
We are getting to tired, we cannot wait for you to reach the sea again, thanks for the show darling, bye!!
