Off the coast of New Hampshire -which isn’t much coastline at all, about five miles south of Isles of Shoals we saw a boat. Zooming. Ferry? No, a whale watching boat and then it stopped about one mile from us. For an hour we hung out watching, and listening to whale songs.

I was alternately afraid to be close (they didn’t allow that) and worried we’d be too far away for a decent photo. Russ had patience, not me so much, but these are the two best pics. Humpback? not sure yet. Our first ever whale sightings.
