Sea life

For many of us, the encounters we have with other species while at sea is often a highlight of some passages. It's been amazing to have sailed among pods of whales, dolphins and porpoises. Have seen sea turtles swimming not far off the beam, and many other interesting critters, especially when offshore. I find it to be exciting and wonderous.

I saw these two videos and wanted to share them

Very COOL! My kids still talk about the whale pods we encountered at sea and it has been 20 years. Thanks!
