September 2, 2021 – We headed south on our full day sail. We found a minke whale on Salmon Bank and a pair swimming together on our way back to Whale Rocks. The sea lions were fun today. One curious sea lion that took a liking to our baby, Skye. It spent a fair bit of time right beside our stern watching us. We also saw lots of harbor seals, tons of diving birds, and a great blue heron.
