And you saw an Orca - ?! Wow! I have only seen them from afar, long ago, and not had a camera at hand. Beautiful, Justin!! Your Vancouver Island trip looks like it was a dream trip - good weather and lots of sightings. I'm glad you saw this part of the Northwest. Best, alicia

Indeed, another highlight: the Orcas. We saw more of them in fact, but I didn't manage to capture them on camera. I also saw them jumping from the water and splashing their tails in the water. Really an amazing sight! (And how I wish that I would've had my current camera back then :) )

However, I didn't see the best ones apparently. My dad and I took a trip with one of those small, fast boats and saw this one. My mom went on a bigger boat that didn't jump so much (she had a spell of backpain just before), and she actually saw seven orcas swimming beside each other, close to her boat.

Kind regards, Justin
