Dominica November 2005
A week-long trip to the mountainous Carribean island of Dominica
(pronounced "Dom-in-EEK-a"). Primary rainforest covers over two thirds
of the island, making it arguably the most untouched island in the
Caribbean. This is not your typical tourist's Caribbean. The best beach
is accesible only by rappeling down the side of a cliff, and the loudest
nightlife hotspot is 15 feet in the air, in a treehouse surrounded by
the cacophony of jungle sounds.
Dates of travel: Nov 18, 2005 to Nov 26, 2005
Duration of travel: 8 days

We meet in the afternoon for the whale watching trip. It our first time whale watching and we figured that Dominica was as good as anywhere to go. Our boat is fancy and new, the crew is friendly. We see about 10 sperm whale in our three hour trip (there's a resident pod of sperm whales that live right off the coast).
Mostly, it's fun talking with the other passengers and just being out on the water. Andrew doesn't seem to mind the unlimited rum punches either.
