Not the best visibility and just a few seconds of video material, but for us a simply unforgettable moment. So hard to believe that we saw this right in front of us… To watch the video in High Definition (HD), please follow this link to Vimeo.com. Um das Video in High […]
We did several whale watching tours during the past couple of years and mainly we saw the whales like this… But this changed today! Already the first whale we saw was breaching the surface several times and showing in an incredible way how these 25 tons animals are able to […]
