Here They Come

Tuesday morning and we have 52 students from a Rockingham school join us on a morning cruise. We head out and cruise along Outer Brambles cruise over the passage between Mistaken Island and the northern end of Goode Beach. We enjoy some morning tea as we look for some dolphins. As we sit off Whale World talking about the days of whaling in Albany one of the local fishing boats calls to tell me that they spotted a couple of blows in a line between the the safe water marker and Michaelmas Island. We head out to see if we can find the whales. We do have some time constraints so cant spend too much time looking. But no luck today. We head towards Middleton Beach and back towards home and as we re-enter Princess Royal Harbour the deck from the fishing boat that had spotted the whale phones me to say he is sitting up on  Marine Drive and he can see the whales we were looking for, but they are now on the outer limits of King George Sound.
