Whale of a time
Last Sunday I went down to Bar Harbor for a continuation of a tradition started in 1994: whale watching.
First of all, I like the water. I like swimming, I like kayaking, and I like boating. Whale watching in Bar Harbor with the Bar Harbor Whale Watch Company is fun because I get to go 35 MPH in a boat in open seas, and I’ve been taking my GPS over the last couple of years so I can track where exactly we go when I come back home.
We had a successful trip this year. We saw a minke whale, a finback, and three humpbacks (my favorite, for reasons shown in the picture above). We also saw lots of birds and a couple of tuna (wow, those things are fast). I love everything about whale watching - it’s one of my favorite things to do.
More pictures are available (of course) in the gallery.
