One Amazing Day!!!!

Dear Friends,

Today we had an AMAZING day!!!
You will NOT believe what I about to tell you!!!

It was SOOOOOOOOOOO cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me start at the beginning!!

This afternoon we went to the beach on the south end of the island....

We were just going to spend an hour or two out beach combing and then head home...

Well while we were at the beach we saw a California Stickapus (which is a type of sea cucumber)!!

It was really wierd looking AND feeling too!!! Our sea shore book said that they are rare cause people have started liking them to eat!! GROSS!! lol

Well, we were kind of getting ready to leave when a couple ladies standing in the parking lot said that there were some killer whales out in the sound!!!!! So we went out onto the beach again to see them!!!!

When they had passed the point and we couldn't see them any more.. we got into the car and followed them!!!! Well, to make a story short, we followed them basically all the way across the island and ended the sight seeing chase in the Safe-Way parking lot!!! There were 12-14 whales and we followed them for about 6 miles!!!!!!!!! At the last point we saw them we were by the docks and there were 6-7 otters playing on the dock!!!!! They were SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOOOOO cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think we saw all those wonderful things cause we DIDN'T have the camera!!!!!!!

We didn't capture a thing!!!!!!!!!! LOL

 

So all i have for you is my descriptions...Sorry....I know they aren't very good!!

It was SUCH an amazing day though... I mean we got to see the whales breach and spy hop!!!!!

And we saw some of them come ALL the way out of the water!!!! Tail and ALL!!!!!

It was Amazing like i said!!!!!!!!!! lol

 

Well it is kind of late and i need to go now!!!

 

Catch ya all later!!!!
