More recent photos--09

Gotta see the whales, beach, sea world!

More california.    We saw about 6 whales on our ride, and a few times saw a couple of the whales quite close.  Then, plenty of dolphins as they played close to the boat.  If you go, we highly recommend Dave's Dolphin Safari at Dana Point Harbor.  The catamaran was built so you could easily stand right over the dolphins swimming just a couple of feet away.

The dolphins purposely seem to want to be close to the boat, would circle around and come back to us--just to play with us!  

California Jan 09

We had to get away to the warm weather when we saw the temperature was 70 degrees and sunny all week in Southern California!  

Here are a few photos of the beach.  Water was 54 degrees, but it was still fun with our wetsuits and playing in the sand.  Those dolphins are swimming wild in the open ocean--right along our boat, which you can see in the bottom right corner.
