Off the coast

We spent the day on a boat along the Orange County Coastline hoping to see a whale. This time around we were not fortunate enough to see any whales, but we did see dolphins and sea lions. It was such an amazing experience to be out in the ocean observing these amazing animals in their natural environment. Feeling the wind blow through my hair, while meditating on the boat's undulations, was enough to leave me awestruck. The vastness of the ocean was intimidating, and poetic. Watching the dolphins frolicking around the boat was amazing. They seemed so carefree and curious. The sea lions were also intriguing. They appeared comfortable and peaceful, as they sat on the buoy. Toward the end of the trip I began to feel a bit nauseous, so I was glad when I was able to return to land. Afterward we grabbed some pizza, funnel cake and cotton candy, before heading home. It was such an awesome day!
