Adventures at Sea

"Five passengers set sail that day for a three hour tour... A three hour tour"














Our tour had more than five passengers and it was longer than three hours, so no fears, we did not get ship wrecked.

We set sail way too early in the morning to go whale watching and snorkeling. We chose to do a little sailboat vs the booze cruise our friends went on. While ours was a little more expensive, it was much more enjoyable.

The crew was amazingly helpful. They offered everyone anti sea sickness pills before we left the dock. I passed, thinking I wouldn't need it because I sail(ed) all the time. And, actually I was fine until I ventured under the deck to use the restrooms. Then I got some not so pleasant feelings.

They also made our drinks very strong and tasty. And, the minute PJ started thinking the drinks were not strong enough, they made them stronger. Though, at that point PJ and I definitely did not need it.

We saw whales, lots of beautiful fishys and lots of water. And, we had fun. PJ was actually amazed at how much fun he had whale watching. He thought it would be sooo lame, but he was the first to start jumping out of his seat when he saw a whale. As the drinks went on, he was jumping up more and more at whales the rest of us never saw, but he swears they were there.

Those whales were so real. Just as real as the sea monsters all the rum-drinking sailors used to see in the old days.
