A quick morning outing with Transient orcas, and an afternoon with lots of wildlife

Sept 5th – The T65A’s, our “Resident” Transient killer whales, pass Friday Harbor early in the morning. Our afternoon trip came with the true experience of the rainforest: rain. Hot chocolate smoothed the rough edges of the changing seasons.
