Azores Day 9 – Flukes!

Sperm whale diving on our last day

Dear Readers, by the time you read this I will hopefully be back in East Finchley, and I am writing this on our last evening in tearing haste. I’m sure I’ll have more thoughts about the Azores once I’ve dealt with the massive pile of salty laundry that’s in my suitcase, but for now, let’s just be glad that I finally managed to take a photo of a big male sperm whale heading down a kilometre or two to munch on some giant squid….

Humpback whale diving

And that on our final day we also saw a humpback whale, and s/he was very obliging on the fluke front too.

So wish me luck with my ferry/plane from the Azores to Lisbon/flight from Lisbon to Heathrow/taxi home!
