We went on a whale watch to Jeffrey’s Ledge, with a commercial vessel out of Rye, NH.  It made for a long day, with lots of boating, and sleeping teenagers.  I spent several hours out on the bow sprit with some students, and everyone was excited to see a fin whale, a few minke whales (photos above by Alex Kirby), and MANY sea birds.  We arrived back at Appledore for a late dinner, and another beautiful sunset.
