Whale watching

On Sunday we went to Victor Harbour (just over an hour's drive from here) as we'd seen on the whale watch website that there had been sightings over the weekend. We hopped into the 'car' (feels more like a monstor truck - Pete loves his Toyota Land Cruiser!) and off we went. There was a mother whale and her calf that we could see from the beach and they were both pretty active. They kept rolling over (so we would see one fin followed by the other) as well as jumping backwards (head first) and then doing dives so that their tails were in the air for ages. It was great and we felt so lucky. And to think it's only 'down the road'. Yay!
