Windy day with blue whales
After the great weather we've been having the last days it was still sunny today but really windy. We fortunately managed to have luck with blue whales on all the tours except the 12:30 tour where only one minke whale was spotted once. When it's windy, bumpy and sunny like today it often makes it hard to spot whales.
I went only once out today, at 17:00, but we had good luck with both a minke whale and a blue whale. We got the blue whale once quite close but then it started to travel away from us and it was hard to follow it because of the waves. But everybody onboard managed to see it and that's the main thing of course. Good to be able to go home and brag about seeing the largest animal on earth!
Following pictures were taken by Halla Marín on the 17:00 trip.
