Getting to the conference town a day early was really worth it. I went out on a very small whale watching boat.
There were lots of birds, even before we left the dock. A great blue heron and an Egyptian Goose--very fitting.
It was great seeing the Port Elizabeth coastline from the water.
But the real attraction were the Humpback whales. We saw 20+ and had one that circled out boat for a long while.
We also saw what I think is a Polar Skua. The captain of the boat says it preys on terns and small birds.
Here is a really short video of the whales.
After whale watching I came back to the BnB and met Peggy Albers and Hilary Janks. We found a really wonderful place for dinner called Fushin.
