Ella’s Diary
We went whale watching today (well dad didn’t)-he gets seasick. We saw humpbacks; they are the 5th biggest animal in the world! It took a while for them to get used to the boat but in the end the relaxed and started Breaching and doing tail sails and flips upsidown! Unfortunately we didn’t get a go picture of them breaching.
