Gulf of Thailand Adventure: Whale Watching!

Early in the morning, we set off from Samut Songkhram, boarded the whale watching boat, and looked forward to the journey ahead. The crew members were very professional. They not only introduced the structure of the ship and how to use the items on the ship, but also gave us a vivid lesson on whale watching. From the types of whales to their habits, I have a deeper understanding of this mysterious sea. - After a period of sailing, we finally came to the waters where Bryde's whales frequently appeared. At this time, the captain and crew members entered the "combat state", they observed the sea surface attentively, and led us to find whales, watch whales and chase whales together. The feeling of tension and excitement is really indescribable! - After a period of waiting and searching, we finally saw the legendary Bryde's whale! They swim elegantly in the sea, and their huge bodies sparkle with silver light in the sun. At that moment, I seemed to be able to hear the resonance of my heartbeat and the sea, and felt the most primitive shock and beauty of life. - Of course, how can such a rare moment not be photographed? I picked up the camera and recorded these precious moments, but my shutter speed was not as fast as the ups and downs of the whales, and I didn't take the legendary scene. It turns out that there is a big difference between the legendary whale chasing and the real whale chasing. Although the camera didn't take it, my eyes saw it, so! Let it stay in my mind with more shocking beauty! - The round trip of this "whale watching" journey is nearly 8 hours in total, but the time on the ship without seeing the whale is not boring, because the crew members have prepared a rich breakfast and lunch for us, as well as drinks, fruits and desserts to keep us full of vitality during the long voyage! This voyage not only allowed me to see the miracles of nature, but also made me deeply experience the beauty of close contact and harmonious coexistence between man and nature. The experience is also great!
