On Friday, a whale watching field trip was experienced with my two youngest daughters and their high school classmates. We went to Newport Beach, California, for a scenic day. We did see whales, though not the big tail flapping ones we had hoped for. It was a stunning February day!
Actually taken towards the end of the trip, some scenic wildlife on the buoy (above).

What type of whales were they, the ones you saw?
You had an astounding day, judging by the photos: the sun and the sea, what more one could want?

I think the whales are California Gray whales.
It really was an amazing day.
