Come to Cape Flattery

Cape flattery is on the Makah Reservation and is at the very NW tip of the state of Washington. It overlooks the old lighthouse on its own island. They have nice boardwalks for most of the trail. And stunning views which you’ll see later this week. You must have a $25 yearly (calendar) pass to enter the tribal lands.

A whale’s tail

Got this fun shot of a baby grey whale at whale cove on the Oregon coast. It was swimming with its mom and at the time we thought it was the tale of one and the other’s face. But later we learned from a docent that these huge whales can curve up like a banana (or more). So now I think it was just the baby. WE were so surprised how close to the rock they kept.

Galapagos under water

Snorkeling in the Galapagos was terrific. THere were so many kinds of fish and wildlife. Most were found very close to the cliffs of these volcanic islands. So you had to be very careful of the surf pushing you into the sides of the wall or into shallow reefs where you would get instantly cut up.

These were all taken with my lil point and shoot Olympus TG-6.
