The people are on shore were lucky enough to have these orcas breech right in front of them. This is a once in a lifetime event that they will remember for years to come

Could not believe all the people on this whale watching tour – doesn’t look like there is much room to maneuver – so glad that we are on a small 30 ft boat and there are only 8 of us including the captain. We have room to move around the boat.
This boat traveled from British Columbia and since they have to travel at fast speeds to get to area where the orcas are they have to wear rain gear.
On our tour today we spotted some seals on the rocks

Today was our first whale watching tour. Aaron arranged for us to go out on a six hour tour with Captain Spencer of Maya’s Legacy Whale Watching. Most tours are only three hours but Aaron made special arrangements to give us more time on the water.
It took a while for us to get used to taking photos on a rocking boat but we got some great shots

Maya’s Legacy Tour Boat is the one on the left just in front of the one with the yellow top. It was hard to get a good photo of the boat.

We made it to Friday Harbor, After lunch we checked into the Discovery Inn and settled in and got our camera gear together, we headed out to our first photo shoot and captured our first Orcas
We weren’t the only ones out whale watching. The first photo is of a tour group from British Columbia and are all decked out in their rain gear since they travel at high speeds to find the perfect location
Sure glad we are on a small 30 ft boat with just 8 of us so we all have room to move around and try to capture some great shots
