While visiting a whaling museum in New Bedford, Mass we saw this on the wall. "In the 1800s thousands of voyages with tens of thousands of men, killed hundreds of thousands of whales, by traveling millions of miles, for tens of millions of gallons of oil, for hundreds of millions in profits. Today whale watching is a multibillion dollar global industry"

While in Cape Cod we did a whale watching tour.  We used a company called Dolphin Fleet in Province town.

 Our tour exceeded expectations. We not only enjoyed the boat ride, had a drink during a beautiful sunset, but we were taught about whales and their migration patterns as we watched for the majestic creatures.

 We were able to make reservation the same day, which we appreciated.

 The boat was large, safe and uncrowded.  The evening was perfect; the staff was knowledgeable and engaging. They helped us anticipate where the whale could be rising from the water each time.

We were awestruck as we witnessed the whale’s enormous size from up close.  These mammals are simply amazing to watch. We did not hear any whale songs and they did not breach the water, however the acrobatic abilities were evident as they filled their mouths with sea creatures diving in and out of the water.

 So glad we made the time.
