June 20-21
Yesterday’s trip started off foggy but cleared up a few
miles offshore. We passed by a harbor seal close to the harbor and headed out
to find 4 minke whales and a huge fin whale! Our hearty passengers weathered
the rain like real troopers.

Today, we had a couple brief sprinkles from the
rain gods, and after a lot of searching, found a humpback whale, #0050 on the
move.

He traveled 2 miles in the 30 minutes we followed him! Ok, granted, 4 mph
seems slow to us, but for a humpback whale, that’s a pretty good cruising
speed! I wonder where he is heading??
