We set out on a wildlife cruise from Bay Bulls, final destination Witless Bay. At the mouth of the harbor not ten minutes after we left the dock, our boat stopped. We sat for about 30-45 minutes roughly 100' from a Zodiac and a kayak. Those tiny boats had the best seat in the house if you ask me. Whales! Big, beautiful, graceful, gentle behemoths of the Atlantic ocean surrounded us. At any given moment there were 6-8 humpback whales swimming around and under the three watercraft. While on the top deck I looked down and saw a left fluke followed by half a whale tail swimming stern to bow directly beneath us. Cool.
The pictures are old and taken with a film camera (a what?) but the memories seem like yesterday. I have other pictures from this trip to Newfoundland that I may post later. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed taking them.
