nothing like kiting on one side of the jetty and having the whales plotting on the other side of the jetty... the orcas where having a great time

Sick...

Never been a documented attack on a human. Finally those pesky great whites have something to be worried about at Florence. Gotta figure out how to keep that pod there full time!

Is there a way for the orcas to get around the jetty...or are you permanently separated. If not, you guys/gals are hardcore!

Beautiful animals, maybe we could catch one and sell it to Sea World for new kites for everyone? How much do you think Sea World paid for it's current stock of whales?
