I did not prepare for this trip like I should have. I haven’t gotten seasick since November 2023, so I decided not to take a Bonine or wear my Reliefband! Mistake. I was ill for two days, but at the end of day two we had an amazing whale encounter. We saw something off to starboard, but couldn’t tell what it was. Bill ran below to get his camera, I started my video on my phone. When the first whale spouted, I was amazed. But it didn’t stop there. Four sets of hump backed whales were surrounding our boat. They came within 500 yards of the boat. Tails up and down, and one even breached! I will be in awe of this beautiful experience for the rest of my life! Videos tomorrow!
