Its moments like these...

...that make you appreciate the smaller (or should I say larger in this case) things in life.

I finish work at 9.00am and my husband and I didnt really feel like going straight back home so I suggested that we go for a drive into town and pick up some breakfast there and maybe go park the car under Fort Scratchley (our favourite parking spot) and see if we can see any passing whales.

Where we had park and ate breakfast we couldnt see anything but as we drove off around the corner I could see the tell tale sign of whale spume. We sat there for at least another hour watching 6 pods (roughly 4-6 whales in each) of Humpback whales slowly swim pass the coast. One young whale did a few breaches and that was special.

What made it extra special was that a mother and her calf were swimming really close to shore. We're so lucky to be able to see these magnificant mammals so close to shore and to see so many of them in a short time frame too.

Next time I should take the camera with me so I can get off a few frames.

Oh fine...It cost me 8 grand to cruise to Alaska to see one lousy whale..and the ass-end of a carabou running away...and all you have to do is drive to your favorite spot and sit in your car and see pods of whales......taint fair ..just taint fair a'tal.

Lady Belle, that was an awesome story, I hope you carry your camera next time, what a special photo, that would be.

Miz Mum, I certainly would relish the sight of one lonely Alaskian Whale, Or even a Carabou's Butt.

All I getta see on a regular basis is Cows, horses and pigs.

Its hard to tell an exciting or romantic story about parking under a beautiful blue sky, sitting next to your honey, as hogs wallow in the mud... tain't the same [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Unless of course the hog's your honey, but I read they actually have laws against those things. How weird is it that you *need* laws against that.

Oh no, now I've befouled Belle's beautiful memory.

A man was recently fined at a local court here for having sexual intercourse with a female pony at a nearby paddock.

I once read someone commenting that a friend did it with a goat and he asked about the sex of the goat, and the guy replied "a female goat; I'm not gay." Which cracked me up. For several reasons even.
