[CINC] JULY 27 CX, A HUMDINGER

[HAL ALTMAN]

2 Blue Whales (Cow/Calf pair)
1 Minke
800 Common Dolphins
2 Mola Mola


Finally, a relatively flat sea...very few of the 112 passengers requesting
BBags.  Excellent spotting by Captain Dave.  Also aboard were crewmen
Dennis, Matt and photographer Bob Perry.

Unusual happenings:
The Blue Whale cow fluked at least 5 times
A higher-than-average number of juveniles among the Common Dolphins
Easy to spot the gulls picking parasites off the Mola Molas


ENJOYING LIFE,
Hal Altman

PS:  Due to an am charter booking, the Condor trip was scheduled from
1pm-5:30
