Whale of a time.
This Baby Whale was having the time of it’s life on Tuesday morning, in the warm sheltered waters just out from Hervey Bay, QLD.
I took my mum and my two boys out Whale watching for the day on board the “Mikat” whale watching boat, in Hervey Bay, it was a great day, although a little rough, making a few children sea sick, my youngest Sam amongst them, he recovered enough to enjoy the cruise and be amazed by the whales and their antics, I missed the larger whales breaching, yet was lucky to see this young female displaying her abilities, it is an amazing sight and to be so close to the whales is wonderful, we saw several pods, and watched them for some time,
baby whales resting on their mothers heads, these mammals are so huge yet so graceful, it is something we will never forget…..
The Mikat provided us with a great lunch, and a comfortable cruise, friendly staff, and I would recommend this trip to anyone heading up that way.
