San Ignacio Lagoon
Touch. Perhaps the most underrated of our five human senses. In the course of a lifetime the things our hands have reached for and touched! The memories stored in that simple act. The people we love, the food we eat, the laces to our shoes. We have all touched important things, silly things, hot and cold things, slimy things, smooth and silky things. If only our hands could talk!
Thousands of things each and every day that we have all touched, thousands of days of touching thousands of things for each and every life on board the Sea Lion. A lifetime filled up with touch, so much so that perhaps we take it all for granted.
Not so today. Today many of us touched something so new, something so exciting, so unique that the memory of it will stay with us for the rest of our lives. Indeed, the feeling of touch has gone beyond the physical and into the spiritual. In turn our lives have been touched in a way that is yet to be written, yet to be contemplated, yet to be fully understood. Here in the untouched beauty of San Ignacio Lagoon, the most basic of our senses has sent us on a new journey of discovery: a journey about life, about gray whales, and perhaps even about ourselves.
And it all starts with a simple touch…
