Change Of Plan

I can't tell you how glad I was to see the ship this afternoon at the end of our ride from Bahia Malaga. Seas were rough and we were bouncing and rolling for almost an hour and a half. A few people were sick over the side, and I think if I had to go another half hour I would have been sick also.

After only three hours of work this morning, we got word just before 11:00 that they were pulling us back to the ship because bad weather. I've heard a couple rumors that the site I've been working at will be closed on Saturday because of the bad weather that is coming in.

Reading in bed and taking a nap was a perfect way to spend the afternoon after the past three hectic-paced days. When I got up I went out to the boat deck and was able to watch a whale breach numerous times, as well as slap its flipper on the water. I've been told we are in a whale breeding ground. I've been able to see at least one whale everyday that we've been off the coast of Peru.
