What Wheels ?

See wheels ? Asked Antonio as we were walking the Malecon heading towards my bus to Mismaloya.
I don't see any, I said.
Look at bird, he said, follow and see wheels.
All I saw was a boat but, I thought, maybe they now have ecologically correct boats using some kind of paddle wheel.
But it was moving really, really fast and making quite a bit of noise for using wheels so....
Look, said Antonio again, they are yumping
and then it dawned on me.
He was talking about WHALES.
Well, whether wheels or whales, I still didn't see them.
Except for the kinds that walks on two legs, wear bright colored shirts and shorts and funny hats and who I would really rather not see.
