I went whale watching on Sunday. I stood on this cliff at Manly and looked out to sea for at least half-an-hour. I saw several water-spouts in the distance that I was told were whales. They were either large whales far away, or small whales even further away. There were no "Attenborough" moments, but I left satisfied in an I'm-easy-to-please kind of way. It's good to know they're out there.
