Finding the shell of a crab // Encontrando el caparazón de un cangrejo

I was walking with my cousins along the rocks of a beach in La Guaira (Venezuela) and decided to stop and take some pictures. I sat for a while looking at the beautiful sunrise and the fishermen. Then I realized that near where the waves crashed were dozens of crabs. Soon I found really close to me what I thought was one of them, but to my surprise it was just its shell, which was incredibly preserved! My little cousin amazed and took it home, where he could keep it as a souvenir of that day.

Me encontraba caminando con mis primos por las rocas de una playa en La Guaira (Venezuela) y decidí detenerme a tomar algunas fotos. Me senté un rato a mirar el hermoso amanecer, a los pescadores y me di cuenta que cerca de donde chocaban las olas habían decenas de cangrejos. Pronto me encontré con lo que yo pensaba era un ejemplar de los mismos, pero para mi sorpresa era solo su caparazón ¡el estado de conservación era increíble! Mi primito quedó maravillado y se lo llevó a casa, donde pudo guardarlo como recuerdo de aquel día.
