Cute and cuddly..or sleek and agile - behold the Dolphin

Dolphins Dolphins Dolphins everywhere! That is what can be said on a recent trip for Laurens Birthday Outing. The sea condition were great and the waves were few. However the the flat sea allowed us to notice the abundance of marine life in the bay. Seals, Penguins, Dolphins and Whales...all in one trip.

Enjoy some of the pics that follow:

For when you dont have a camera...a cell phone will do

It seems that the blog site can serve as a useful platform for those groups that do not have cameras aboard. Unfortunately I only my cell phone, but you can make out everyone aboard the trip.

I really enjoyed that one!

It's video time

Thought I would share this with you...

..from Germany!
If you're asking yourself: nope, we didn't meet in person somewhere on a trip, but my dad did on V-day. He was down at Hout Bay sent there by a firm ...... and everybody was asked to better leave their cams and stuff like that outside the boat in case it's getting a little wet :) So there aren't any nice photos of this trip now, alas. However dad saw you and your lady (so he guessed ;D) taking some pics with your ipod asking where you'd upload them- he was the grey-haired one, blue eyes and a beard (probably) speaking english in a funny way...
Unfortunately he does neither own a facebook nor blogspot account and asked me to contact you.
We'd be so thankful, if you could arrange to upload some more photos of this trip on your blogspot or even contact him directly via email! -->

So here is a video and more to come once they have been properly edited.

So that was last week....

The weather has not slowed the pace of Zangetsu, as we managed to venture out in gale force winds. Unfortunately the fun and water (provided by the sea and wind) had by ALL, did not allow for many pictures to be taken. The waves were big and the speed was right.

In Hout Bay recently the South Easter provided some interesting challenges getting to Seal Island and the boss crane. But we managed and because sea water is the water of life, no-one really mied getting wet.

But because the pics are few i decided to post another upcoming weather forecast... to wet your appetite for the sea.
