June 1st (Vessel New Horizon): Fields of whales. That is what awaited us early on into our morning trip. With occasional lunges, massive rafts of sea lions, and thousands of birds ranging from gulls, to shearwaters, fulmars, and of course the iconic pelican… today was not a good day to be an anchovy! Choppy seas added a moderate bounce and tone of adventure, and intermitent fog cast an eirie mood, high with anticipation. Overall, a fantastic trip, with Captain Tommy behind the helm, and Yohan serving as deckhand. Yours truly ranted and raved, as usual 🙂
