It's whale mating season in the North Pacific. Male humpbacks make dazzling, awe-inspiring displays of raw power, appealing their physical prowess to area females. All we could do was look on, eyes agape - their efforts made for an epic christmas show. . . . . . #mexico #puertovallarta #nature #pacific #ocean #marinelife #whale #seacreature #travel #travelphotography #worldnomads #planetearth #wanderlust #animal #circleoflife

Day 1 in Puerto Vallarta. These little dudes popped up near our towels and began crawling around, disoriented, as they contended with their first moments on the earth. They arrived a bit early - baby sea turtles are supposed to begin their perilous journey seaward under the cloak of nightfall. Per the direction of a beach supervisor, we cupped our hands with sand and gave them them a lift to the shore, avoiding the threat of menacing seaside birds. The one-way, early bird express pass. Coo-coo cah choo-choo! . . . . . #puertovallarta #mexico #beach #baby #turtles #marinelife #nature #seacreature #ocean #life #travel #yinandyang #travel #abroad #travelphotography #worldnomads #planetearth #wanderlust #backpacking

Louisville, Georgia 🍑 // This quintessential southern town with one stop light, one grocery store, and a DQ, where everyone knows each other, the food is rich, and life moves a bit more slowly. // This town where my ancestors put their stakes in the ground dating back to the 1760's. It's a history we aren't always proud of, still, we honor our ancestors and are thankful for the seeds they sowed. // Especially thankful for my grandma, my Deet-Deet, who at 86 casted her vote for the first ever viable, black, female gubernatorial candidate in the history of our country. . . . . . #thankful #thanksgiving #family #louisville #georgia #south #thesouth #history #revolution #food #travel #ancestry
