It was a rainy night but the morning was perfect. The sun was shining and the sky was clear. We woke up exited despite the rainy night. This was because our educators told us that we were going to see whales . Finally ! All that information that we learned on whales , set to practice. We had breakfast and after the amazing breakfast we started doing our favorite activity in the boat "washing the dishes". Our Educators wanted us to get to know a little more about the whales before the whales watch trip, so they decided to give us a small introduction on science of the whales and why do we find them where we are going. The trip was long. We arrived to Playmouth Massachusets a historical port. They had a life size replica of the Mayflower,this was the boat that the pilgrims used to get to America. We embarked on a awesome adventure to the deep sea in a huge boat used to do whale watches. The trip was like a hour and it was so boring until we saw our first whale. We got so exited, our R.A. freaked out and our educators wanted to take the whale back home . They were so big and beautiful. We gasped as we saw those big gazers of water coming out of their blow holes. We never thought that they were such huge animals. The whales that we got to see were humpback whales. They were so intelligent and charismatic with the people on the boat. As they showed us how they dived in the water we could see there huge tails and after this, big ponds of still and foamy water called fluke prints. It was a incredible experience and many of us can't describe how awesome it was. After this great adventure we got to the Lady Maryland and rested for the next day while the crew got ready to sail. Our trip is ending, of we go to Salem!!.
