I never saw such quiet waters, maybe because we are sheltered from the wind by the Island of Vancouver. Still, I am amazed to feel so little wind and see no waves. It reminds me of the Croatian Islands in the Adriatic Sea where I went with my son a few years ago.
But today, I met animals that fascinate me very much, seals: so awkward on shore and yet wonderful swimmers once immersed. They have no visible ears and smaller fins than sea lions. I could spend hours watching them.
Who’s coming, he wonders. I hope he is not going to dive and disappear… no, he looks at me for a few seconds and then ignores me. I would love to paint his fingernails pink…
