Sea lions – Pier 39 – San Francisco – USA Tour 2008
Sittin’ in the mornin’ sun
I’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ comes
Watchin’ the ships roll in
Then I watch ‘em roll away again
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide, roll away
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time
Left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco Bay
I had nothin’ to live for
Looks like nothin’s gonna come my way
I’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide roll away
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay, wastin’ time
Looks like nothin’s gonna change
Everything, everything remains the same
I can’t do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I’ll just remain the same
I’m sittin’ here restin’ my bones
But this loneliness won’t leave me alone
Two thousand miles, I roam
Just to make this dock my home
I’m just gonna sit, on the dock of the bay
Watchin’ the tide roll away
Sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time

i once was diving, and got a very curious baby seal swim with me (i would summersault underwater and he would do the same..), until an angry bull seal decided enough was enough and out of nowhere charged me, and veered off at the last second.
it moved about 10 times faster than i could ever hope to, and weighed at least 4 times my own wieght (i weigh a mere 56ks) so it was pretty scary. needless to say i left baby seal and headed back to the boat.
They are great to dive with, so playful and graceful.
That must have been a tad scary !! wow you’re a feather weight, lol still more than me :))

Excellent Varinia and a great choice of song. It is so cool to see all the sealions basking in the sun. I stood and watched them for quite some time when I was there.
Check out my attempts
Thanks Tom ! They were great to watch, was such a cold and blustery day and they seemed so content :))
