On Sunday, Dave took Kristen and me out on his boat to drop some crab pots. It was an overcast day and not too chilly, so a good day to spend on the water. While we were dropping the pots a humpback whale swam by. It flipped up its tale about 100 feet from our boat. This is the prime time to see humpbacks. I can never grow tired of seeing whales! Once we returned to shore, Kristen and I went to yoga. I was glad to return to class and look forward to Sunday night yoga classes throughout the rest of the season.

The next day, the three of us took out the boat to retrieve our crab pots. We caught 15 dungeness crabs, but were only allowed to keep 6. Out of state residents with fishing licenses can only have 3 crabs in their possession at a time. Dave and I were the only 2 with licenses so we picked the 6 largest crabs and threw the rest back. On the ride back to shore we rode by a rock covered with sea lions (around 30 sea lions). Some of them slipped into the water as we rode by, but most just looked at us suspiciously. We then headed back to my apartment and had a huge crab boil. We also fried some halibut that Dave caught. Life is good.
