09/08/2005 - the MV Le Conte provides us with our own personal ferry from Petersburg to Kake.  We share the front lounge with a young Japanese man.  A professional photographer perhaps, given the size of his telephoto lens.  He is excellent at spotting whales and as we travel along Frederick Sound we are lucky enough to see a pod of around five or six humpbacks travelling through the water towards us.  

One of those very special moments in life that no photograph can ever really capture.
