Sorry this is late, but I got the flu New Years night and have been in bed until today.  Captain Lee was on board we sighted 2 greys going south on the first trip and several small groups of dd and as we were going in we encountered a larger pod. About 28 passengers a few sick sick people on board, also a large number of passengers from England.  Second trip had about 40 passengers, we encountered a very confused whale on the east end of Anacapa.  Seems as if it was traveling in circles for the 30 or so minutes we watched it and then finally got on its southbound journey and ran into mega pod of dd no one got sea sick but it was a very cold ride home with a lovely sunset.
