Dear people of Elding,
I, a minke whale in the sea near Reykjavik, wanted to give you a report on some great people spotting. The 26th, at around 13.30 we spotted what
appeared to be two Dutch girls. We got report from a couple of harbour porpoises before that they seemed to be dancing on the deck trying to
keep their balance, but it seemed that by the time we got to spot them they got used it. It was great to see how they went running from one
side of the ship to the other. It was hard to spot what kind of people species they were, but once we saw them eating Stroopwafels, we were
sure: Dutchies. Too bad we couldn't hear their strange language due to the strong winds, but it was obviously a great day for spotting people!

Hello,
Last week we vistited you two times, It was really great! The first time we saw two mink whales but the birds were great too: puffins and the spectacular gannet, like rockets they hit the water. The second time we met the mink whale, the harbour porpoise and the fantastic white beaked dolphin. Our son of 10 told everything about the animals at school.

Today´s trip was absolutly fabulous. The sea wasn´t very calm, but we have seen many whales and I just had to admire the professionalism and pleasant attitude of your crew. Whenever I remember to Iceland, I will remeber this trip. Thank you.

Guys,
This is just a quick note to tell you how fantastic you all were during our whale watching trip with you last Tuesday. The weather was dreadful but Megan and the crew kept us well informed and entertained as we sailed around the ocean in search of the elusive whales! We spotted a great Humpbacked Whale close to coming home and it was just the greatest moment. You summed it up very well in the daily diary with the comment of ‘Not the best of weather but the best of whales!’. Awesome experience just for the boat ride itself but capped off with a fantastic view of a whale doing what it does it best! Many thanks, we will be back when the weather is more kind to enjoy the experience again.
Phil
