Hi Frank. Yes, the trip went well, better than could be expected really.
The whales were even friendlier by far than in the previous three years
I have done this. After several mothers and calves came to us to say hi
we had a group of 4 adult whales that seemed to be competing for which
got to be closest to our boat where we could stroke them. Some whales
would position themselves directly under the boat and rub against it for
a while. Given that they were larger than our boat we had a few anxious
moments until we got used to it. Not sure what that was about. Kinky maybe.

Part 4 and maybe the last part to follow soon.

Mark
