what i learned on the trip over all

there are so many things that i could tell you about the trip, but there is one that i think was most helpful to me. That one thing is the whales. I think the whales are the most important thing i learned because we don't have whales here in C.O. When i first got on the whale watching boat i thought we were just going to be on a boat for three hours doing nothing. Well i was completely wrong. we had a great instructor who made the wait of looking for whales seem like it was no time at all. when i first saw the whales i was speechless, they were so cool! but i also learned so much about them from Mr. J.B and from all the other adults there who helped out. some of the facts i learned about the orcas is that the male orca's dorsal fin can get up to 6 feet tall, while the female can get up to 3 ft.  I also learned that when an orca breeches it only does it for fun. The group we saw was a pod of 4 or 5. witch is an average pod. a pod is a group. there are soooo many more things that i learned, but the whales is one of the most important things because we like i said don't get them in C.O.
