May 27th

Excellent day. Out all the way to Whidbey Island, a first for myself, to see J-pod mysteriously hanging out off the airbase around 3pm. Our 6pm evening trip found us traveling along San Juan, south west to Salmon Bank, and we saw groups of orcas all over the place. Offshore, inshore. We had a marvellous aerobatic display from Ruffles and Co, which involved them in a tight knit group breaching and doing back flips close together. Incredible. As more and more groups of orca were seen all over the place, we realised we had more than J-Pod here. After a beautiful look at L79, Skana, we realised we had a questionable amount of L's here. How magnificent. Only vessel on scene, oh how we love the evening trips!
