Whale Sharks

It was one of the worst boat rides I've ever taken - 8-10ft swells, thrown off a seat onto the floor (& that's where I stayed), and I was the only one who wasn't sick on the boat!!

Not too many photos - only an hour with the whale sharks (maybe 6 runs?) so I'm posting EVERY photo whether it is good or bad. Video will follow when I get home.

Incredible experience!!

The whale sharks were amazing - like big, slow puppies that nudge you!!

If my boat-mates weren't puking their inards over the side of the boat, I would have stayed a lot longer, but it was a rough day and everyone was glad to be back on land after 4.5 hours on the ocean.

If there's a next time, I'll take a helicopter drop into the ocean vs. that boat ride again!!
