''Out came the sunshine and dried up all the rain '', as they say, and that is exactly what happened Friday July 10th. Skipper Matt, 'Malahat' took the 2pm Yellow Zodiac with guests from all parts of Canada and Germany out of the harbour and headed us toward San Juan Island. The 'ORCA' had been seen earlier off Salmon Bank and milling around in small family groups. We encountered several members of L pod , one of the pods that make up the Southern Resident Orca that eat salmon. One female was 'logging' at the surface looking like a floating log. L 7, affectionately called Canuck and L 72, 'Racer ' were easily identified. A mother and her young calf were also observed. Tail lobbing and foraging behaviours were seen. The water remained calm for our late afternoon trip so everyone on board thoroughly enjoyed their wild life adventure with Prince of Whales.Marie, Orca-Magic
