Leviathan (Cape Cod, MA)

Partly inspired by Philip Hoare’s Leviathan or, The Whale, we made the excursion out to Plymouth, MA in order to go whale watching at Cape Cod – the home of Moby Dick. Though I didn’t spot the sperm whales that I had hoped to see, I was still thoroughly excited that our vessel was visited by a couple of Humpback whales. I’m told it can be pretty difficult to remove the smell of  a whale’s breath from your clothes, luckily only a little of the mist got on us.
