Remarkable day of whale watching out of Newburyport. Jackson had never been on a whale watch (I took Oliver several years ago), and we had a lot of great sightings. A mother and calf put on a show, and at one point the calf swam under the bowsprint where the three of us were standing, as close as I have ever been to a whale. Here are some pictures.

Jackson, 13, and Oliver, 11
Both will be at St. John's Prep next year.

The "bowsprint" hanging out over the water. We spent the day there, with great views of all the whales. |
