Whale Watching

Nearly two years ago, my wonderful coworkers chipped in to give me a Red Balloon experience voucher when I moved on to the Faculty of Business and Law. And after all this time, I finally cashed it in for one of the most perfect morning with my boys.

We boarded a boat up at Hillary's Boat Harbour, were invited to share one of the best areas of the boat with the nicest Italian Australian family with kids close in age to the boys, and raced over to Rottnest Island in hopes of spotting humpback whales on their migratory route back to the cold feeding grounds near Antarctica. Luck was on our side, and we got to watch a mama and baby whale for nearly an hour as they had a bit of a rest before continuing on their journey.

When we returned to Hillary's we gorged ourselves on a yummy lunch, caught ourselves some Pokemon, and had a bit of a splash in the still chilly waters of the harbour. It was all pretty perfect.
