Have you ever seen hiking signs that say "cotton kills"? Cotton holds up to 28% of its weight in moisture, keeping wet fabric right against your skin. Stay safe on the water and skip the cotton. #sailing #sailingschool #offshoresailing #boat #sailinggear

Last night a full gale blew across Buren Bay. From Mitsu’s old house near the shore I listened to the wind roll over the roof and wondered how Wahine was handling it out on the mooring. Boats are strange companions. You care for them… and they carry you. — Field Notes from Amami.

In 1996, an incredible incident unfolded at a zoo when a female gorilla named Binti Jua demonstrated remarkable bravery and compassion. A 3-year-old boy accidentally fell into her encampment, putting him in danger. Without hesitation, Binti Jua carefully picked up the child and carried him to the entrance of her enclosure. Growling at any approaching gorilla, she shielded the young boy from harm until help arrived. This heartwarming act of heroism showcased the deep emotional connection that can exist between humans and wildlife, leaving a lasting impression on all who witnessed it. Binti Jua's actions have since become a symbol of the extraordinary bonds that can form between animals and humans. #AnimalHero #GorillaRescue #WildlifeCompassion #BintiJua #AnimalProtection #HeartwarmingEncounter
