More Sea Life

Today we saw more dolphin but they were a different kind called Risso Dolphin. They have a flat nose almost like a Pilot Whale. They're very graceful and fun to watch but they're not as playful as the Bottlenose Dolphin. The water was completely flat, like a lake almost the whole time we were there.
On the crossing back over we saw three whales. We think they were Grey Whales. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get any pictures.

What we love about Catalina

This is our current view from the deck in Catalina.
The little specks in the ocean are dolphin.
We went out to get a closer look. They were all over the place.
I have a new respect for photographers who get perfect pictures. It isn't easy!
I snapped a few that I'm happy with. It's so fun to watch them and listen to them chatter.
