Happy with Humpbacks

Sept 7th – Today felt like the rainiest day we’ve had in a long time. Luckily there was a break in the raindrops as we encountered two humpback whales in Haro Strait. We were all smiles after that. Layers of clouds revealed the sun working hard to peer through giving us a gorgeous sail home in the changing light.
