Hello Whalewatchers!
A great day in Laguna San Ignacio! We had excellent whale watching trips this morning. For the morning, we split off into two groups, one group went out to the mangroves while the other went out whale watching – then they swapped. Everyone had multiple close encounters with gray whales. The photo is Celia looking a gray whale calf in the eye!
We took a second trip out for whale watching in the afternoon, and everyone got more opportunities to interact with the gray whales. Everyone certainly had their fill! We also took a quick trip to the beach to view the whale bones and shells. It is always great to be on a beach where your footprints are the only ones.
I’m always a little sad at the end of our season here in the lagoon. It is hard to leave knowing we won’t be back until next year, but knowing we are coming back is a blessing.
