Open Water.

A couple of weeks ago, my dear friend Hailey came to visit

and invited me on a sailing escapade. It was so much fun!

We saw dolphins, listened to fun music, and enjoyed a 

beautiful sunny day in the sea. 

We cruised around Balboa Island for a little while

and looked at all the crazy, cool houses. 

I am fascinated by that place.

It's like Pleasantville...

THEN, sweet Jess Ramsay invited me to go on a whale

watching excursion with her and it was a blast!

However, we didn't see a single whale...

It was more like: Sea Lion, Dolphin, and Pelican watching.

Fine by me.

These pelicans were amazing! 

They just kept flying up to Jess and I

(we were the only two people sitting on the back of the boat)

and staring at us. They weren't even afraid! 

I'm so glad they posed for a few pictures.

 Somehow I managed to lose an arm...?

Since we weren't seeing anything,

 we got lots of pictures

of ourselves. 

Ok, I was maybe a little sad that we didn't see any whales. 

Jess is so much fun to talk to that I think we forgot we 

were even supposed to be looking for whales. 

We just chit-chatted for two hours and then realized

we hadn't seen anything yet and were

headed back in. 

Free passes for next time though!
