Whale of a time!

Nana and I decided that, that was it we could not stay cooped up in the house any more we had to get out over the weekend. Flowers? Whales? In the end the weather was to unpredictable for flowers, so we'd thought we'd take a drive towards Cape Point. Sat didn't go to plan as Isis got sick... Sunday Nana got up packed her bags very excitedly but.... Isis was still sick and need the vet. Finally at midday we escaped. On boys drive we saw loads of whales. I then thought we'd try the harbor. Mmmmm half of CT had the same idea!!! I thought we'd never get out the harbor let alone find a park... Well we eventually found a park. We tried Harbor house and I am greatful (with hindsight) we never got a table. We were lucky to get a great spot at polana. Nana thought she had landed in heaven, first mojito, fresh air beautiful views and a whale right in front on the restaurant!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes that white smudge in the water is a whale! It was funny as we had not been there long when Nana and Zander trotted off to the bathroom and no sooner than they had left than a whale appeared and swam right along the harbor wall and around the rocks in front of polana. I honestly thought the whale would be gone by the time they arrived back but he was very obliging and stopped about 50m off the rocks right in front of us and stayed for ages.
Oops i choose the wrong pic! Aah u get the idea anyway.
Zander could not resist and eventually came up with a good reason as to why he should climb out the window onto the rocks... Rubbish

You can imagine Zanders delight when he got to feed the seals! Wow talk about fat over feed seals.





The harbor has such an amazing atmosphere I could have sat all day watching and taking picks of all the characters.
