Rain rain rain go away, El Nino please take this rain away to come back some other day! I’m growing moss under my chin its been so darn wet here over the past few days.

It rained for the whole morning but right after lunch it cleared up, so we hopped in the skiff and went to look for some elephant seals on the rocks and and in the surf zone.  We had to drive the skiff a little ways to the north,  but managed to get some good underwater footage of male and female elephant seals interacting.   The two cameraman got up close and personal with the seals, so close that one female actually mouthed the lens.  This was the last shot the team from Japan Underwater Films needed for their documentary, so it is sounding like this trip, although long, has been a rousing success!

Tomorrow is our last day here at Guadalupe.  The last 20 days have been great, but everyone is ready to feel dry land again under our flippers!

Adios,

Captain Spencer
