It seems it’s only when friends or family show up that I think to do the “touristy” things.
One adventure I’d missed since moving here was to go on a whale watch trip. I booked with Eclipse Charters when I had out-of-state friends visiting a couple of weeks ago, and we had a wonderful time! The whales, eagles and harbor seal sightings were plentiful and magnificent. Our guides answered our questions, pointed out what we might not have noticed and gave us ecological lessons in the process, which I appreciated.
My sincerest thanks to Capt. Dan and Denise Wilk for this terrific service they provide- and to our guides Deb and Mary. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and would leave the boat with memories to last a lifetime. Here’s to “staycations” on the island!
