Happy Hump(back) Day!
I left the rain & wind in Anchorage yesterday and landed in Juneau, where the sun was shining and the seas were calm - perfect for an afternoon whale watching cruise with Harv and Marv's Outback Alaska. We had an epic day on the water and while I was hoping to witness the humpback bubblenet feeding technique, we instead were treated to a few beautiful breaches. I've witnessed breaching whales a few times previously, and it's hard to top watching a 40-ton animal launch itself out of the water!
This is my last voyage on the Grand Princess this season as a guest lecturer with Princess Cruises and I will certainly be adding these to my presentation tomorrow! I have 3 more voyages beginning next week on both the Island and Royal before my season draws to a close. It's been an honor to share my story and my images with the passengers, and I've been able to take advantage of local excursions like this.
As always, thank you for following.
