Well it was a carbon copy of yesterday, with mostly sunny skies, moderate temperatures, and calm conditions.  Not bad for January!  It was smooth paddling down to the boat ramp and with only one other paddler there, it was much better than yesterday.  I sat on my board for quite a while, but  I didn’t mind because it was such a gorgeous day.  I only saw three turtles today and they seemed to want to hang out right in the boat lane, where the boats go in and out on the ramp.  One turtle, in particular, was very friendly and swam underneath me a few times and surfaced to take a look at me!  I was having a really good time with the turtle,  until the boats started to come in.  After I had to paddle away for the third time to get out of the way of incoming boats, I called  it a day at the boat ramp!  Paddling back was just a smooth and fun as when I first went out too.  It was such a beautiful day, so I paddled out to the Quiet zone and sat for a while before paddling in.  The conditions stayed just as nice for my swim, and it was still really nice when I left the beach.  I love days  like this!
