Turtle weekend

We decided to join Alyan and Colin to celebrate his birthday by driving up north to see the baby leatherback turtles.

Little stop on the way!

Our rooms were literally on the beach!

Turtle releasing time! In order to increase the chances of survival of the babies, the nests that are found during the day are saved to be released at sunset. 

Off they go!

Clara finally gathers courage to hold one.

Zzzzzzz

Next morning we went looking for nests and cool rocks.
