The Baby Turtles Release

This vacation will always be remembered for one very special thing
We had the privilege to participate in a baby sea turtle release
Mexico is the "land of sea turtles", with seven of the eight species known worldwide nesting on its shores
Being part of their birth process was a thrill that will be hard to surpass
