THE SEAL WHO LOVED ME

This unique video is of a tourist who sat on the beach to watch the seals and penguins on Gold Harbor, South Georgia. Unexpectedly, one of the seals is apparently attracted to her and, slowly works his way over. He seems to 'fall in love' and snuggles and flirts with her. It is quite beautiful, sweet and interesting scene. What really moved me when I watched this video was their loving interaction. For that moment in time they were not a human and a seal, but two living creatures exploring and digging each other. A sample of the power of love, completely cross-platform.



The seals are huge (6,000 lbs), yet the woman never seemed afraid...more amused...while someone shot the video of this incident. I would like to think that instead of fear, she kept her heart open, and the seal felt it.

Gold Harbor, South Georgia, is located off the southern tip of South America. (sub arctic) It is a small bay five miles S-SW of Cape Charlotte, with Bertrab Glacier at its head, along the east end of Georgia. The west end of the beach where a glacial stream flows is a breeding ground for various types of penguins and large seals.
It is not a frequent destination for tourists.

    I LOVE THIS. I want to live with the seals! Contrast this with the horror that is the baby seal slaughter each year in Canada. Those people should be hanged.

Driving on the OTHER side of the road

Image
Usually I think of myself as a good driver. I have driven a lot, on tough roads, long distances and crazy weather. I started driving at an early age and one of my first road experiences was when mom let me take the wheel while driving between São Paulo and the Amazon. Well, only for a few minutes since I was only 14 years old. We were on a small patch of dirt road and we were driving a Ford Caravan. I felt so powerful. I loved being in command of that machine that could take us places! I will tell you, those few minutes were enough to spark a passion for driving and for road trips. From that moment on I was hooked. I would always be the designated driver on many long trips through North and South of Brazil. I was convinced that I was the best driver of all of my friends so I would gladly take the wheel, sometimes for 18 hours straight. I loved everything about it. The whole body and machine integration was a definite high for me. This went on from when I was 18 (mini...
