Radiance of the Seas Part III - Cabo San Lucas

My ocean experience has been the coasts of California, San Diego, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Half-moon Bay, etc. Nothing prepared me for the waters of the Sea of Cortez.  I started toward the beach with the intent, as always, of just wading out into the water, getting my feet wet and enjoying the atmosphere.

Radiance of the Seas Part II - a day at sea

The distance from Ensenada to Cabo San Lucas is such that we were at sea an entire day, approximately 1000 miles by land 900 by sea. This was one of the most interesting times for sea live and just pondering the vastness of the ocean. To look out from the bow of the shop and see nothing but water was an eye opening experience.

Radiance of the Seas Part I - La Bufadora

La Bufadora is a blow hole, a phenomenon that occurs when a cave has one end in the ocean and the other end on land. Air pressure forces water through and spits it out the other end up to 100 feet into the air.  As it does this, the air escapes the opening with great force making a spewing, snorting sound that gives the feature its name.

This isn't the beginning

I realize that the time to have started this blog was years ago when I first started fishkeeping. Then I could have chronicled how it all began and all the successes and missteps along the way. However, at the time I got my first betta I didn't realize that's what I was doing. To me, I just got a fish, because I had always wanted a fish.
