Mum came up from Taiba a few days ago. So instead of kiting everyday we went on a buggie-sightseeing-tour on the sanddunes today. We saw a rock with a whole and did a boatride between the mangroves looking for this rare little creature, the seahorse. The seahorses are pretty strange… The male stays usually 1square meter from his inhabitat while the females territory reaches 100 times that. The male is the one getting pregnant after receiving the eggs from the female. At the time when the eggs are passed from female to male the animals gets synchronized. They may change color, swim side by side holding tails or wheel around in unison in what is known as a “pre-dawn dance”. They eventually engage in a true courtship dance lasting about 8 hours (just like their fellow forro-dancing citizens). Romantic and mythological…

I have loved to hang out with you here mum. Will miss you loads over the next five months… <3
