That's nuts!!

I could see how he might be a little shaky with the camera!

guess not a good idea to paint a seal on the bottom of your kayak

That would be way to close for my comfort! Very cool vid. though. Lucky the whales didn't capsize them.

I so want to try this! I did a whale watching tour off Vancouver island, but you don't get that close to the Orca Whales in a big boat. I just dreamed they would come right up to the boat. It was still a very cool experience that I will always remember.

That would be SoOOOOo COOL to do the kayaking trip! I've always wanted to do it! Its very pricey though, but maybe one day. First, I must check out Sea World! Seeing an Orca up close.

However; kayaking trip... what a RUSH that would have been! LOVE IT! Thanks for sharing!
