Bent knees and a firm grasp all but steady me as I bounce across a vast deep blue sea. I am ambitiously looking for migrating Gray Whales, which breed in Mexican lagoons after a long migration from the North. My first destination is the Northern-most island of Los Coronados. I see no Gray Whales. Between islands, I see a small pod of dolphins, whose dorsal fins can often be mistaken for ripples in the water. They momentarily swim , hopping furiously in the waves. After circling the islands, I decided to head back North in search of these elusive Cetaceans. It is not long after passing the North Island that I begin seeing spouts of water in the distance, which I quickly change course towards: the Gray Whales are here!
So, was this over this past weekend? If so, we're headed there soon! Thanks for sharing. I'll be a "following" reader.
