Finally Spring~the whales have returned!

You get your west coast humpbacks about 6 weeks before the east cost humps arrive in out Newfoundland waters.
We have icebergs right now and the birds are starting to return to the islands. (They spend the winter at sea bobbing on the ocean).
We LOVE the whales.

I used to work on a dinner cruise ship in Hawaii. Once in a while I would work the lunch cruise and get to see the whales. They are SO awesome!! Had a couple of them one day just swimming under and around the ship. Had to shut the engines down for about an hour until they were done "playing" and left. Somewhere I have some pictures of them. One layed on it's side and swam right next to the boat. Was too cool!!

Yea, I know, mean, huh?
There was always a briefing that went on about the whales. Do's and Don'ts as to what we could do and couldn't do and it was always told that if the whale approached, we HAD to shut the engines down. Some people just don't listen.......
