Like a mirror!
The sea was like a mirror today, it was sunny and clear weather and a good day to spot the whales from a far distance. On the tour with the schooner Hildur today we spotted the first whale not long after crossing over the bay from puffinisland. There where humpbackwhales. If you read the blogg before you probebly heard about the “clook-system” that we use to point the whales. Anyway, it works like this; imagine the ship like a clook, 12 is straight ahead, 6 is at the back, 9 is in the middle on the left side (port) and 3 is on the right side (starboard). While we where out in the bay we had one whale at 12o clock, one whale at 3 oclock and one whale at 6 oclock, three whales all rouns us, all humpbacks! It was difficult to choose witch whale too look at but we got a closer visit from two of them during the tour, just a few meters from the ship.
