Orcas! This is my third trip to Alaska but the very first time we saw Orcas. Our excursion to Tracy Arm was not able to go because of the ice so we were diverted to Endicott Arm. On the way back we saw the cutest sea otter just floating along , we saw a haul out of dozens of sea lions and then the grand finale: a pod of about 10 orcas of all sizes. The boat captain decided to slow down and stay a bit to watch them which thrilled me to pieces. There were a few people who were upset because they had other excursions to catch but I think they made them in time anyway. We are going tonite on an evening whale watch so hoping to see more but either way a great day!
