Arrggg .... ! The digital camera is good for static objects. Moving targets are hard to catch. Barely got the tail of a right whale.

One very early saturday morning (2:30 am) Daniela (still asleep), Mayte and I left a quiet Montreal for Saint John, New Brunswick. There we wanted to go see the whales of the bay of Fundy and visit the Fundy National Park. Our goal was to get as far as possible before Dany woke up. It has been proven rather difficult to keep a child quiet in a car for longer than 5 hours. With this in mind, Mayte drove the first 2 hours and I took over and drove, and drove, until 7:30 am when we stopped for gas half way to Saint John, just before Edmunston, and Dany woke up.
We had a small snack at the gas station but ended up having a full breakfast at a diner in Edmunston. This was a nice break from the long drive which recharged our batteries. Driving at daylight was less tense and more enjoyable. The rest of the trip was through the beautiful New Brunswick region. Ahh, speed limit was 110 km/h !!! Arrival time in Saint John was 1:30 pm, 11 hours after departing from Montreal. A merely 956 km road trip.

Cuzu que bueno verte por aqui escribeindo comentarios!!!
By the way, what did you mean with otherwise???
Pilluela ...
Apparently this kind (of whales) does not breach. The ones that like to jump around are the humpback whales.
After reading Cuzu's comment several times I got her meaning. Without the links, one would have never guessed what these creatures look like. And exactly because of that, I made those links to pages with info about these animals.
