I felt it on the Sea of Cortez by Janet M.

Absolutely the most fabulous vacation of my life!   The location, the whales, the host and hostess, the food - could not have been better.   This trip is imprinted on my soul forever, although no camera could capture the true memories that I hold dear. 11 February 2003 was my magical day!   As soon as I saw the first blue whale fluke, I began to cry.   I think we all did.   We would stop the boat, turn off the engine and sit in silence. Listening. Listening for the exhale. It sounded as if Mother Earth herself were exhaling.

Then ... we would head towards it. A few times I was jumping up and down, crying, laughing and hugging Michael.   He was great with us! Once I arrived home I did some more research on blue whales. I discovered that their heart weighs about 1,000 pounds and is the size of a VW bug. I
know this to be true ... I felt it on the Sea of Cortez.
