Whale watching

Today was a fine sunny day, once more, so finally we went to the port to board a boat. In the old fisherboat harbour of Los Christinos are a couple of boats which offer whale watching tours...
First we saw dolphins, bottle-nose dolphins as we were told...Then we spent a long time scanning the horizon, which is actually hard work after a while......but we were rewarded with the sighting of a pilot whale, which swam with the boat for a while.After such a hard-working day :-) we spent the early evening in our favorite beach bar, listened to the lounge music, enjoyed a couple of "sun-downers" and admired the colors of the evening sun sinking into the waves of the Atlantic Ocean..
