Petit Byahaut (July 15-17)

Sea turtle tracks in the sand at Petit Byahaut (Jul 16, 2004, 09:34am) After breakfast when we went down to the beach, we saw this set of turtle tracks. Sometime during the night a turtle obviously came ashore. We hope that the turtle did not pick this beach for its eggs, since the dogs would fdig them up.

Matty relentlessly digs for crabs (Jul 16, 2004, 09:39am) Matty was one of the two resident dogs at Petit Byahaut. As seen here, Matty would hang out at the beach and try to dig up the crabs that buried themselves in the sand. Sometimes Matty would even catch one, although not this time.

Brain coral (Jul 16, 2004, 09:46am) On the morning of our second full day at Petit Byahaut, Daphne and I decided to snorkle around the bay just off the beach. This next set of pictures are all underwater shots from that snorkle trip. You will notice that there are lots of things to see even just a few feet from shore.
