[CINC] July 2 Condor

[Beverly Borneman]

20 Humpbacks3000 dolphin
4 Miles off the coast we encountered 2 Humpbacks, one was Rope.  Feeding among 1000 dolphin.Then by oil platform Hondo we had quite a show of 14-20 Humpbacks busily feeding, with eight great tail slaps by one of the Humpbacks. Dolphin feeding, jumping, then quickly changing direction behind the bait fish, over 2000 dolphin seen over an hour's time.Excited, happy passengers from Norway, England, Holland, France, Germany and Austria, as well as Illinois, Arizona, Conn., Mass., WA and CA.On return we stopped at oil rig and the natural gas seepage, very interesting for all.
