I finally met a friendly whale!


Hola amigos. No time this moment for a full trip report but THANK YOU Mary Ann Humphreville, Jeans and M for insisting I should go to San Ignacio whale watching in March! I finally met a friendly whale there last week after many, many years of whale watching at Guerrero Negro. We had two mommas and two calves all coming up to the boat to be petted and scratched. For those who disapprove of whale watching, our boat was just sitting there with the motor turned off when the whales decided to come and hang out with us. It left us all in tears. My 7-year-old daughter held up her hand and said, "Mommy, I am never going to wash this hand because it petted a whale." At first, I resolved to never go whale watching again, because it could never again be that perfect. But then of course I decided to go again next year, ha. Over in Loreto Bay on the Sea of Cortez, we also saw seven finback whales in the bay! Great trip.



If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen. Henry David Thoreau
