Despite the increasin snow storm we started the week strong. We had to come back a little bit earlier because the visivility was decreasing with the increasing snow and wind. But what we saw was amazing a total acrobatic display from Piccolo!

The excitemt started when we found 2 Humpback whales together just by Svalbarðseyri. We realized it was Darcy and Piccolo, and these two always like to hang out. But after some dives Piccolo decided to start tail throwing, followed by some tail slapping and some inverted tail slapping which allowed us to discover…. Piccolo its a female! So maybe we will have to call her Piccola now. But that was not all because the gran finale came with 3 Breaches in a row. It was short but it was mightiy defenetely we all agree, the seasicknes was totally wother to be able to witness this spectacle.
