Whales...

Ok, finally well rested enough to post some of the whale photos from last Friday.. It was really an amazing sight - praise the Lord for His wonderful creations! I actually held my breath when the 1st whale appeared and exhaled. And I screamed when they started to jump and flip. We spent almost 6 hours out at sea spotting them.... it was an

what ARE u doing on the net? catching fish?

thanks for sharing these lovely photos - very very nice! was it expensive to go out to watch them?

I'm guilty of having once had whale sashimi, only once, cos it was so tough i said i'd not have them ever again.

nice couple shot! when's your mom going back? i'm sure she will not look forward to returning home after her visit .

Ha ha , just rolling about and fooling around. Forgetting my maternal duties and responsibilities for a while which felt GOOD!!! ;)

We actually got a good deal , abt S$120 per person from 8am-5pm which is a much longer outing than other companies. And check this out - I made curry & fried rice to bring on board for lunch and offered it to our skipper Fred. He loved it, took 3 helpings and gave us a 10% disc. ha ha ha

my mum's going back Sept 20. She'll miss Josh to bits.. that's sure! Despite her nagging, it's nice to be "mummied" by someone... to be the kid again ;)

Yes babe.. whale watching is only from July-Sept annually. They'll swim back to the Antarctic for food after....

But no worries, we can see other things - we can fish, hopefully there're dolphins... it's just a wonderful feeling to be out at sea. Very peaceful & calm ( provided weather is good & waters are calm).

Yep.. you can "detox" here from your korean dramas and partying, ha ha. Over here, there're more trees than people. More birds, dogs ( NO cats , ha ha) boats than people. You can go for days without talking to anyone.... something you never ever do in Sg!

And Josh lasted the 5-6 hrs out in the SEA? Amazing!!! I think with Jay, I'll be so desparate after 1-2hrs that I'll jump into the sea myself.... hahaha.

Ok I just realised that I have yet to post Leen's bd photos... will try to do so asap.

Ha ha, I was lucky. Cos it was time for his mid-morning nap so he slept for 2 hours - exactly when we'd gone out far enough to start spotting the whales.

Then my mum helped me feed him lunch and we stopped at a small island on the way back so he got to do his fav thing - pick shells, throw, splash water etc etc

And ec took care of him most of the time - my "off" day! Josh loves boats so it's quite easy.

Josh is ok outdoors so far... it's when we're trapped indoors the whole day during bad weather that he gets cranky and I wanna "Long biah" !!!( bang my head against the wall)
