LOL! Oh Ginna, you've given your mother a heart attack.
In Hawaii when we were there the seals would come up on the beach like this. They actually have to to rest. So when they did come up because people bothered them so much a group (I am assuming this was their job, to be on the look out for these resting seals) would run out and rope off the area so that the seals could be left alone and rest before heading back into the ocean. It is actually necessary for their survival so momma K, calm yourself. The seal isn't going to eat Ginna. He's too tired too. He's resting!!!
Holy blubber! It's...not nearly as cute as I usually imagine seals. And so...sluggish. Is that an elephant seal? That schnoz is something else. Sweet pictures!!
I love your pictures Ginna and I love that you get a road trip sans Max. Sounds fun. I love looking at your blog because you have the best pictures. On that note, I'm sure you're asked a lot, but what kind of camera do you have?

and I don't have a zoom lens, so I was pretty brave and got up close to this awesome yet kind of scary elephant seal!
I do hope you end up in California, or close to it. Because it you do then there is a greater chance we will live near you.
you should have shoved it back into the ocean.
I'm going to do some research into the animals. What it they DO move fast then they don't like you? Holy Cats!!

I think i saw a seal like that rip another animal into bits. but maybe i'm not remembering that correctly. maybe it was a tiger. jk
carie's comment made me laugh really hard. I second that. if you see another sea lion then i say you do it.
Holy blubber!
