It is always exciting to receive a friend's #debut #mountain #book in the mail!! This is the first time I received a signed copy. #katieives @alpinistmag #dreamscometrue #mountainbook

In June, I had the opportunity to spend a few dreamy days in @golapaz . As I mentioned in an earlier post, in between a series of #gourmet meals showcasing #bajacuisine , @bajaadventureco took me fishing one day in the #SeaofCortez, home to more than 5000 species of micro-invertebrates, many rare and #endangered #marine #mammals like the vaquita, humpback, blue, and California gray whale, leatherback sea turtles, #sealions pelicans, sardines and anchovies, and more. The next day, @estarla & @streetgourmetla joined me for a 6-8 hour tour of #islaespiritusanto an @unesco #World #naturalheritage Site since 2005 and a #nationalpark since 2007.

The first thing our marine biologist guide said when we boarded: you can't swim with #sea lions June 1-Sept 1 because they are breeding and the bulls are aggressive and unpredictable. Therefore, I was especially surprised to capture footage of a #sealion dancing underwater with my #appleiphone . Then moments later, we sailed by one of the largest sea lion colonies in the world, hanging out on rocky crops at the northern tip of the #island .

The bulls barked so loud that we couldnt hear each other speak. They postured, established their territory and sang, “Hey look at me,” but it’s the mommy sea lions and their #yearlings that I can't stop thinking about at night. They remind me of my life with my children. #LaPazBCS #VisitBajaSur #visitmexico #lapaz #mexico @visitmexico #bajasur #livelapaz #momandbaby #parenting #babysealion #babysealions #animalsofinstagram

For our first family #internationaltrip , we chose a #resort like @atlantisbahamas because we knew our #expenses funded their #nonprofit #AtlantisBlue Project Foundation which fosters the #preservation and #conservation of #coral reefs, #seaturtles #sharks #manatees #cetaceans along with their #bahamian ecosystems, through scientific research, education, and community outreach.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In their #dolphincay you can #swim #snorkel #kayak and #standuppaddleboard with #dolphins who were rescued from #katrina or ingesting trash or getting caught in fishing nets and lines and other litter, pollution, oil spills, collisions with boats etc...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
#atlantisbahamas provides a locker, wetsuit, snorkeling gear, towel . You can't take a camera or cell phone into the water but they provide a #photographer who accompanies you through your experience! It really takes the pressure off from being stuck behind the camera. I was most shocked about petting a #dolphin. Their skin feels soft, rubbery, and cool. When I asked the kids what was most surprising? The 5 yo said, "That they can walk on water." The 8 yo said, "That they can walk backwards on water." The 13 yo said, "That they were so friendly." @ko_snowboarder said, "That the #dolphins🐬 were rescued from so many different places around the world."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
