US, road trip, Day # 2 - Boston, Albany

Oh yes, the day I found out, the whales travel to Boston area during the summer, we reserved tickets to whale watching safari. This was our third time and this time we really really saw some beautiful whales (last two times were more or less dolphin safaris). We did not see whales jumping, but saw one whale clap her (his?) fin into the water multiple times (WOW, what a sound that was). We also saw a family of four whales swimming and diving right beside the boat. And some individuals going further away.

We did stay further away from their route, but I guess they were as curious as we were, because they came really really close to the boat we were in.

Beautiful big humpback whales (and probably one finback whale too). You should see them yourself to describe the experience properly. (And yes, I have checked the WWF´s website. They say that whale watching really IS good for conservation too. And is a way to stop killing whales, too.)
After whale watching tour we were ready to continue our trip. So we headed towards Albany. It was raining, but the hotel had an indoor pool and jacuzzi. So evening well spent in the pool.
