We heard about a whale watcher and screw it, let’s do it! I wanted to see puffins, too, and that would be nice.

Puffins were spotted like black little dots in the distance, and whales were plenty, playful, surprising, amazing.

People in the boat got sick all the time and that was pretty entertaining. Cristina started taking photos of whole families shut down, and by doing this we engaged in a crazy conversation with an awesome family. The chat  started with puking and ended up with puking inside someone else’s mouth, or something like that. The father was a dentist (what a nice person, I’d not be afraid of a dentist like himself), and Cristina asked him if he didn’t feel like puking in his patient’s mouths, when having to work in adverse chemical situations, like very bad breath. I swear, I think that the man never expected that question, and me neither, so we all developed subject issue for quite a while. Deep inside I was admiring Cristina for her brutal honesty.
