We are getting closer than ever to the middle point and,
like any place with life in it, the center tends to be more densely populated.
The north Atlantic ocean does not escape this rule. As proof of this, we were
constantly interrupted during our happy hour by cetaceans.
The first and biggest visitor was a whale, similar in
size to the boat, that loudly got out of the way when we got too close. It
was a big surprise to suddenly be very close to such a large animal, and we
didn't even had time to sit back down that the next visitors came
in. Unidentified cetaceans, bigger than dolphins but smaller
than our star guest, were seen jumping calmly in the water. Later
research in the famous boat library revealed nothing. After such
events and with plenty of chips still in the bags, it is almost
understandable that the dolphins were just quickly looked
at, barely marking a pause in the conversation.
Obviously, no cameras were present to capture
any of this. They would have made quite esthetic portraits of
jumping dolphins in the sunset on a calm, almost mirror
sea.
Instead, another picture from yesterday's photo
shoot is offered.
