AGAIN we couldn’t go to churh this morning as it’s too busy in the office , BUTTTTTTTTTT , we have the glory and the beauty of what GOD has made ALL AROUND us ! ( ek klink soos n predikant vanoggend ) …. But , I think we can daily be SO privileged to see what we do , and what ‘’tough’’ job we have to be between the whales , hippos and crocs everyday (ha ha ha – someone has got to do it ! ) Herewith just quickly wishing June from Zulani a happy birthday for her b’day on Friday the 13th of July ! She had her ‘’present’’ this morning , were on the 06h30 Whale Watching trip and WHALES A PLENTY ALL AROUND the boat to also wish her a happy birthday ! Although the swells have been a little high the last 2 days , we have BEAUTIFUL days and WHALES WHALES WHALES WHALES , splashes , breaches , inquisitive whales ‘’watching’’ our clientele on the boat and not visa versa …..but the entire experience just leaving the clientele in awe of what they are seeing ! PLEASE JUST ALWAYS REMEMBER TO BRING ALONG THOSE WARM JACKETS , nevermind HOW hot the sun is shining on the beach , it’s always cool in the wind on the boat - there is also ADVANTAGE rain- and fleese jackets for sale at the WHALE SHOP….and remember to tell the clientele we make a personalized DVD of each and every trip which the can buy at the WHALE SHOP after the boat . Then …so far for the season I think our notice board outside of the Whale Shop stands on 336 Humpback Whales spotted and counted on the trips that did go out . ( Obviosuly there is MORE whales , but on certain days due to bad weather we couldn’t go out , so that is just our count that we documented for the Marine and Coastal Management research team ) . On certain days Danie have come across schools of about 200-300 Dolphins , species varying between the Common Dolphins and Humpback Dolphins . Just a little bit of news on the Hippo/Croc tours on the Estuary , I’m skippering more and more trips myself again ….ALL the trips are SO good , we OFTEN ( almost daily now ) get the Hippo’s out of the water , our ‘’winter’’ months is so awesome , temperatures not tooooo warm , so not as in summer as when the hippos are submerged in the water the entire day . IF YOU ARE A KEEN PHOTOGRAPHER the Hippo/Croc Tours at the moment has photographic opportunities aplenty …!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll keep you updated throughout the course of the week again on exciting news …In the meantime if you don’t hear form me , it’s because I’m on the boat a lot and enjoying the trips … |
