I just came back a while ago and they were despartely trying to move the remaining whales out to sea. They believe they will be successful. Unfortunately, often the whales will return and beach themselves again. For that we'll have to see. It was just so amazing a sight. To see SO MANY huge creatures all lying side by side, struggling, gasping for "breath." Words cannot convey how overwhelming it all was. It was an HONOR to be able to help, though I did very little. There is in us, I believe, so spritual, soulful a connection that draws us to these magnificent creatures. People often mock the "Save the Whale" slogan, resuce effots and other such attempts to protect them. But when you see them up close, literally eye to eye, you feel the kinship, the bond we share as fellow living beings, merely struggling to survive on this planet we call earth, an earth I believe, God intended for all of his creatures to share with dignity and respect.
