We went whale watching last weekend to Cape Cod I must say it was really a memorable one. To go to Seaworld and see trained whales performing acts is another thing but to go few hours into the sea in a small boat and see untrained ones in their natural habitat is mindblowing. The whales dived with the boat for a short distance very gracefully .Later playfully went from side to side like a happy dog and we ran around in the near-empty boat to catch the glimpses. It seems it was our lucky day there were plenty of whales close to the boat, was indeed a feast for the eyes.

You are right… tripping without camera means living the moment….and salad looks so yummy…. Never made fish salad… looks so tempting… 🙂
Understood, sometimes picturing is not the priority but having a great time with nature and returning home feeling satisfied. Nice salad, which I think can be filled between toast for a complete meal. Both -salmon and potatoes are a fav in house, so this salad, do I have to say more? Recipe is definitely treasured.
Totally agree to you about leaving the camera behind… sometimes we just need to enjoy the moment… I am totally drooling at both the salads, a meal that I would love to be served post my vegan days, Meena… 😉
