Estuaries and the Seri

Lexi and her kitten

Cleotilda sang a welcome song that described the first lesson ever when their god taught the animals how to make plants.

On this day we went to an estuary and met with Seri Tribal Elders (#hotties). One of the elders,named Alfredo,told us creation stories, about their native traditions, and information about life in the estuary. We spotted animals such as crabs, sea hairs, fish, and multiple types of birds. We sauntered up the estuaries winding path while investigating the intricate root systems of the wild mangrove. The Seri people vigorously offered and sold us handmade bracelets, necklaces, and baskets. At the end and the beginning of our adventures at the estuaries, an elderly woman named, Cleotilda, sang us native tribal songs. #factoid you can lick the white mangrove leaves because they secrete table salt. Yay estuaries they rock!
