But towards the end, the baby started breaching again. I'm amazed
that I got a reasonably good shot of it in 58 below.
After leaving the whales, we found a big pod of spinner dolphins. They're
called this because they jump out of the water and spin around, more than
a full turn sometimes. They seemed to like hanging out in front of the
boat, getting pushed along. They were feet away and Nina and I had
prime spots at the front of the boat.
Just as we were about to head in, we got the "whale tail" (pic 65). A
fitting farewell for our trip.
Here's a higher-res close up of the baby breaching:
