Joan is psyched to go watch Southern Humpback whales in Hervey Bay. The Sprit of Hervey Bay is in the background that we boarded.

Three adolescent Southern humpback whales came up to our boat and spent 20 minutes swimming around, up to and under the boat. They were very tolerant of the boat and the people furiously snapping photos and video.

One lone juvenile Southern humpback whale was in a frisky mood and performed at least 20 breaching maneuvers to the great enjoyment of all onboard the Spirit.
