Beach 2015 – Day 7

The red tide was horrible again so we headed for Sea Turtle Inc which is a rescue and hospital for the turtles around the island.

This is Allison. She has a prosthesis to help her swim multiple hours a day with a volunteer “watcher”. We got there in time to see them put it on her and swim around. The story of all the trial workups is really interesting. You can check out their website here.

I was trying to get a photo of this girl and she kept swimming by and splashing me.

The girls with Gerry who has been on TV as a representative of Sea Turtle Inc.

The girls wanted to take this photo, but they were so tired and the red tide fumes were so bad that it was becoming unbearable. After this we headed back to the condo so the girls could nap and we could start packing up. It was a really good trip overall, but no red tide would have made it perfect.
