Yeah, but the water was a bit chilly!

At one point, the pod of orcas swam right under our boat. I literally could have reached out and touched one of them.

We were just about the only people out there and when the guide killed the motors, the sounds of the orcas blowing was by far the loudest sound to be heard.

It was truly a special treat.
