<\/a>Another sunny and wonderful day for us on the sea with lots of different animals. In the morning we encountered orcas<\/a> again, and a large group of bottlenose dolphins<\/a>. In the afternoon we saw common dolphins<\/a> with a few babies in the group and a majestic fin whale<\/a>. The orcas were the same group as yesterday but mixed with a group that we saw in the beginning of March. It was very interesting to see them together this time. In the afternoon we also saw a big loggerhead turtle<\/a> and lots of seabirds.<\/p>\n
