Whales !!!

As I'm writing this, I'm sitting out on our deck looking out over the ocean. It's a beautiful bright sunny day, not too much wind, and we are being treated to a circus performance of whales. There must be several dozen, maybe even more, breaching, jumping, rolling, flipping, and just having fun. People have been telling us ever since we arrived in Port Alfred to watch for the whales in October. Up till now, we've had our doubts, but today, they're here. There are humpback, sperm, southern wright, and even bottle nose dolphins. I'm not expert enough to tell the difference, but that's what we're told. What a treat! We hope they stick around for a while.
