We booked these months ago, but I'm even more excited now that you actually recommended the same whale watching excursion we're going on. My hubby wasn't keen on the idea of doing whale watching since we can do that anytime we want in SoCal, but like I told him...you don't see killer whales in SoCal, and that's what I want to see. Hopefully we spot at least one! |
It sounds like you guys are doing the right way!!! Be sure to tell your husband that you will see a WHOLE LOT more than whales on the Wildlife Quest. We saw: sea lions, whales, eagles, bears, seals, otters, dolphin and the list goes on!!!! It was awesome both times. We did Seattle the first time and Vancouver the 2nd time. And both were good. You are going to have so much fun!!! It was the first trip we ever took that we didn't wish we were home...
