Our Maiden voyage on the "Three Amigos" boat

What a wild ride we had. I sat way in the front with my hood pulled around my head and freezing to death and the ride was rough! but when we finally slowed down it was fairly nice. We saw so much in such a short time. so many birds and geese, Cranes, Nailgey (a deer like animal witha kind of horselike head), also a Coyote running along the shore and pink Flamingos (a huge bunch of them) Dolphins coming up to the surface. We want to go back again and take more pictures and sight see when it's warmer. It was in the 60's but felt much colder out in the boat.
