We went whale watching today. Oh my gosh! The full set of pictures with all the amazing things the whales did are here: Whale picture album.
It was a magical experience because the whales were very curious about us, so much so that they came right to us and one even spyhopped to get a good look at us (see lower picture). They decided we were okay enough to really do some showing off and oh my goodness did they ever put on a show! In addition to the spyhop, they surfaced and swam around the boat, made amazing noises, did lots of tail wagging and smacking, waved fins at us, and one even rolled over onto his back and showed us both fins! The captain of the boat said it was fairly unusual for them to do that. He said it happened maybe one out of sixty times. All I know is we were extremely privileged to see such an awesome display from one of God's amazing creations.
