crazy folks in a little boat


Some folks have asked how we got so close to the whales and here's the answer. See the boat in the background? we didn't choose that one. See all the crazy folks wearing life jackets? that would be us -- i think there were 16 or 17 of us in a mid-size zodiac raft. The guy without a life jacket? He's the guide....who loves his job....and has the best giggle.....which you hear everytime a whale breaches. "Oh My God *giggle* Oh My God!"
The interaction on our raft while waiting for whales was awesome. There were people from all over the USA...and it was great hearing about their lives and why they chose this trip. We exchanged email addresses so we could get each other's whale pictures, just in case there was a camera failure. I walked away feeling like I had made some new friends.
good times....good times....
