“Fine job of giving us information about the sea mammals. I was particularly glad they said they communicated with other boats on the lookout for whales. They can’t be guaranteed. The dolphins were amazing in such close family groups. (Assumed of course) The shade, the snacks helped make the time pass. The ocean was lovely.”
