Subject: Great Newfoundland adventure to see whales

Excellent story and video by dedicated whale conservationists Robbins and Meg Barstow, who were founding members of the Cetacean Society Internationl. Good travel information to see Canadian-Atlantic whales. Great professional/ home movie, showing the enrichment-of-life by the whales.

Dr. Barstow shares his enthusiasm once again for all species of whales. It is fascinating to learn of the local history of Trinity Bay and share this ocean voyage with Robbins and Meg, two of my favorite whale watchers. Robbins has dedicated decades to the conservation of whales and they are better protected thanks to this American dynamo. I am always astounded at his cinematic tricks such as filming his own departure from a location.
