We had tours both in the morning and in the afternoon. The morning started with our friends &#8211; the <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/common-dolphin.html\">common dolphins<\/a>, a big group with lots of calves and some dolphins mating. Then, we luckily ended up&nbsp;in&nbsp;an area of many <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/fin-whale.html\">fin whales<\/a> that were very curious.<\/p>\n<p>During the afternoon 2 boats went out &#8211; our catamaran &#8220;Cetus&#8221; and one rubber boat. The first sighting was a group common dolphins that were&nbsp;very playful.&nbsp;But quickly we saw blows in front of us so we moved (and the&nbsp;dolphins accompanied us),&nbsp;to reach an&nbsp;area with more than&nbsp;3 fin whales. Our <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/vigias-onshore-lookouts.html\">vigia (onshore lookout)<\/a> counted about 15 baleen whales in the same area. The vigia (onshore lookout)&nbsp;informed us that the well-known <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/sperm-whale.html\">sperm whale<\/a> &#8211; Mr. Liable was nearby, so we&nbsp;tried to see the sperm whale. In the meantime everyone in the rubber boat was enjoying the company&nbsp;of two&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/01\/blue-whale.html\">blue whales<\/a> far from the coast and then the first <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/atlantic-spotted-dolphin.html\">Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/a> of this year. At the end the catamaran missed Mr. Liable because the sperm whale moved too far, near to the rubber boat (the lucky boat today).<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<span class=\"short_text\" id=\"result_box\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"hps\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<h3 id=\"photos-from-the-morning\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"color: #0c343d;\">Photos from the morning:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<span class=\"short_text\" id=\"result_box\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"hps\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto;
