We spent the day after Christmas on a Whale Watching cruise around the Big Island.
We didn't see a whole lot of whale action. In fact it wasn't until a few months later that I realized I actually captured some good shots of the ones we did see.
One of the coolest things about the boat ride was on the way back we saw swarms of Spinner Dolphins. I didn't capture any action shots of these guys, but they would jump and spin out of the water. Very cool!
