In spite of windy weather and rough seas we were excited to the see the mothers nursing and teaching the babies as well as the maile "escorts" accompany the mother. We did not get to see the heat run (male whales competing for a female) but or friends shared their video. The Mystic Sands hostess, Peta, checked on us everyday to see if we needed anything, her husband Mo drove us around the island and into town as needed. We ate at Mystic Sands most nights since Peta was a great cook. The owner, Keil, also checked on us. Julie from Humpback Swims arranged for us to have a different boat than our neighbors to accommodate our older needs i.e. 5-6 hours on the seas instead of 7 which is the maximum. The boat captain and crew worked hard to find the whales and make us as comfortable as possible in rough seas.
