Whale tale

Post by Gob »

A whale breaching, seen yesterday at Eden NSW, when we went out of a whale watching trip. A great time was had by us all, as you can imagine...

Did you have a hand in creating this Pacific Life commercial?

Gorgeous shots, Gob! :ok Thanks for sharing with us.

When we did the Alaska cruise in '99 we took a whale tour out of Juneau. There were about 50 people on the boat. We saw several whales spouting, and a lot blowing bubbles and then breaching. Then we saw two breach side by side. The guide, who had been doing whale tours for seven summers, said she'd never seen a double breach. I admit it was pretty cool, way better than Sea World, but it was over too quickly to get a picture.
