[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 377530, member: 3444"] As promised in my Whale of a Tale thread, here are the photos from yesterday's sojourn at sea. :happy: We saw common dolphins, blue whales, fin whales, and sea lions! The blues and fins are hard to tell apart except for the pointy little dorsal fin that eventually comes out of the water with the fin whales. To see one of these majestic creatures roll out of the depths to take a breath of air is truly amazing. They are SO massive, and you really do not get to see enough of them when they surface for air -- but we were told that the blues are typically 20-40 feet longer than the 60 foot boat we were on! Later this year the grey whales will be migrating through our area on their journey to Baja California to calve. Then they turn around in March and head for Alaska. I hope to take this boat trip again to see these behemoths, too! Enjoy![COLOR=blue][/COLOR][URL="http://s167.photobucket.com/albums/u143/jmamendola/Whale%20Watching%202010/"][COLOR=blue][B]http://s167.photobucket.com/albums/u143/jmamendola/Whale%20Watching%202010/[/B][/COLOR][/URL] [/QUOTE]
