0828 Day Harbor trip

Finally, I got on a boat on a beautiful day. Anne needed to change the vedio tape and camera memory disc for wild life watching system. Our captain was Justin. It was really a enjoyable trip. Fish and porpoises jumping out of water; sea gulls, puffins and some other birds diving with the wave or flying in the sky; sea otters taking a nap on the tide; curious harbor seals peeking us once a while checking out what were we doing. Annd checked these cameras and changed their memories before the winter. There are all powered by sun with sun panels. Hopefully they would survive during the bad condition in the winter. Anne said the behaviors of harbor seals in the winter are unclear. These cameras would help us understand more.
On our way back, Justin tried to fish. We all hopes he can get a Halibut, but only a dog fish (shark). In the harbor, we went to refill gas of the boat. Cool! A gas station on the sea!
