In this place where we saw a lot of sea lions resting on the beach, they really have a nice life. We were watching this one for long time. The juvenile sea lion came out of the water after playing in the waves and sand, and then started searching the beach until he found his mother. After he found her he was happy, and we see him here drinking a good meal. He spent some time making strange sounds, and also watching us, almost like saying "I don't want to share my meal with you." Well, this show was unique and sometimes makes you feel that you do not want to leave the Islands.

Every day seems unique in the Galapagos, but I think today was especially memorable. We visited Española Island, and while some of our guests were swimming and snorkeling with sea lions, others were walking on a very fine sand beach watching these nice creatures.
