On a fundraising panga excursion with Karla de la Peña (owner of Boca Divers and co-founder of Ayudamutt) and captain Daniel, we found ourselves at two different locations on the bay surrounded by mega pods of at least 100 dolphins. They were sharing air, water and fish with blue footed booby birds.

COLONIA INFONAVIT: An easy drive north to Pitillal´s Mega, a right turn and then straight for seven blocks. The clinic took place in the same location we´ve used in the past - the former police station across from a dusty playground. A very pregnant young teenager was with her family waiting for their pets to come out of surgery.
