Seals are cute. Well, some of them are. This one, anyway. We were lucky. We stopped at the top of the hill around the corner from the beach, and there were a bunch of seals sunning on the volcanic rocks. We have quite a few fur seals here, around the coast, and elephant seals, too. There is a colony of the fur seals just down the coast, in Kaikoura. They're pretty dangerous if you get too close to them, and they stink to high heaven, even from a distance. I'm guessing he probably was like, "What?", at the silly caterwauling monkeys up on the cliff top trying to get him to look up at them, but he was such a showoff when he did look, he was all smoochy with the rock he was lying on, and happy to pose for the camera.

You're very welcome for the dedication. I almost missed the whole Valentine's thing... I completely forgot about the whole thing until we had already left. We spent the weekend away for work, which was a nice coincidence. So we had a couple of nice days away, (missed the earthquakes, which popped up in our absence,) and saw some more of the pretty country. So it was fun.
