Caleta Alicia to Caleta Dock

Today I made eggs, tomatoes and toast for breakfast and it was yummy. On the way out we saw some otters swimming to shore and a bunch of fur seals and condors. In the water there were gigantic schools of red krill. Lucas and I started school while we left the anchorage but I only did half of my school since it got wavy once we left the bay. We only motored for about 3 hours until we got to Caleta Dock where we didn't use shore lines for the first time since Puerto Consuelo. Caleta Dock is a long and narrow estuary with a river at one end and at the opening a big rock with a channel in both sides. On one side of the bay is a small waterfall. We anchored across from the waterfall. Lucas and I rowed to the waterfall, got some mussels for dad, who was fishing, and rowed back shore. We tied up the dinghy and walked up the waterfall until it was time for lunch. We should have brought the camera since the view was amazing. We rowed back and were just in time for lunch. After lunch I finished school and made non-successful butterscotch. I did a puzzle and read for a while. Then we went to the river mouth and burn some rubbish. We explored up the river (God bless gumboots) and went back. Lucas and I walked most of the way along the shore and Mum and Dad rowed back. On the way they saw an otter that came right up to the dinghy to look at them. When we got back I wrote this and we are going to have pancakes for dinner.
