Up early today, not sure what time my owner got in, but we had to be up early to get down to the docks for today we are going in search of Orca or Killer Whale.
Once down at the docks we had to get fitted out in safety suits, lucky they were Red in colour. I managed to get tucked inside a nice warm pocket as they didn't have a suit small enough for me. After a safety briefing, we all walked thru the Island dock area thru the market and craft area. Our jet craft departed out thru the port, and north to the most recent
sightings of orca. The safety suits protected us from the cold air and sea spray, but as the day progressed the weather cleared. We all had to keep an eye out for the orca, and while on the trip Paulo, the marine biologist, gave information about the resident orca pods, marine ecology and wildlife.

After over 5 hours on the water we arrived back at port, greeted with a very warming hot chocolate. We then went for a wander thru the produce and craft markets on the island. It appears to be a popular place to come to on the weekends.
We have been staying in a suite hotel on Robson Street, and Saturday afternoon is the time to do a stroll and shop in this area. When walking back the streets were very crowded with people.
Once again tonight, my owner left me behind and when I asked he said "was going out". I will have to try and get a look at his notebook to see what else he has been getting up to with out me.
