Last week I went to Maine with my mom for our 3rd annual Mother-Daughter Camping Trip. Technically, it was only our 2nd annual, as after our first year we skipped one, but to make life a lot easier, I just say 3rd annual.
It was a good time. I really like Maine and we were by the ocean so everything smelled like sea salt, which is the best. It was really pretty, too. The weather was nice. We walked along Marginal Way (which I have some pictures of below) and then on Friday we went on a whale watch (more pictures). We saw a lot of dolphins and a couple of whales. There was a sunfish too, which was huge. A couple of the dolphins jumped out of the water and they were so close but I DIDN'T HAVE MY CAMERA WITH ME AT THE TIME. I was (and low-key still am) disappointed. I even got a sunburn on my nose which was pretty lame. But I also tanned, so you know, that was cool. Every night and morning we had a fire and we sat by it and talked. Overall the trip was really great and I really enjoyed camping and spending some time con mi madre before she went back to work and I started school.

Now the whale watch...

| Not a whale. |

| We stopped by an old lighthouse. |

On the lighthouse island was a plethora of seagulls and cute little seals.
The seals popped out their little heads and looked at us as we went by. |
A lot of times on this trip, especially during the whale watch, I really thought a lot about the creation of this world and just how amazing it is. The ocean is this vast thing that- when you're in the middle of it -seems to just never end. It's beautiful and powerful. Nature in general is a beautiful, amazing thing. I think we should all appreciate it more.

The Earth is truly amazing and inspiring when you really look at it.
