Kaikoura - Whale watching - it looks calm but we were really thrown around by the waves. I deliberately did not eat lunch and I was glad. We saw three sperm whales - Little Nick, Tiaki, and Tutu. This is a Maori enterprise to take tourists out and look for whales and it was a combination of high tech and just watching over the water for the water spouts errupting from the whale's blow hole. The people doing the guiding really cared for the whales and told us what to do to fight the Japanese harvesting of whales for so called scientific purposes.
