Whale Watching Excursion
The whale watching festival at Newport Beach was happening and it was something Eva was interested in doing. She loved the time spent on the beach and ocean, therefore, going out to watch the whales was second nature for the Aussie-born. Eva invited her friends and some of her co-workers to join her. She got reservations on Captain Nick's East meets West Excursions. Not only does he have a remarkable boat, but he is also very knowledgable. She decided to book the sunset excursion to fit everyone's schedule.
The time out in the water was loads of fun! Seeing the sunset from the middle of the ocean was magical. We spotted 2 humpback whales soon into the trip. Eva had a digital, single-lens reflex camera (DSLR). The advantage of a DSLR for whale watching is that you can attach larger lenses. She carried a good zoom lens, 70-300 in order to take great pictures. She had told her family back home she was going to go whale watching and promised to send some photos. The waves were fun and made Eva squeal at some points. Luckily, she took some medicine to avoid seasickness. In the middle of their trip, they stumbled upon pods and pods of dolphins. They were beautiful as they swam near the boat. They were close enough to take amazing photos. Towards the end, Captain Nick pointed out a Gray whale family and also a few sea lions.
Eva clicked away and took several pictures with them in the background. Also, taking a few candids of her friends. After their wonderful excursion, they stopped at Newport Landing Restaurant to have dinner and drinks. What a great time it was and the most relaxing! The Aussie can't wait to share the photos with everyone!
