Lobster Boat Ride

The day was beautiful and we went on a Lobster Boat Ride on the Lulu. We watched as them hauled their catch to shore for market.


Sailed past some harbor seals with their pups.


Those 2 ended up in the water because the baby wanted to get a closer look.  we took a ride past the light house that is automated and run by the Coast Guard.  No more lighthouse keepers!


Spotted an eagle trying to eat some baby seagulls.


Captain John brought up a lobster trap but it was empty, so he filled it with more bait.  They use herring.



Off to another trap and this time there were 5 lobsters.


Then the lecture began about everything you wanted to know about lobster.




Back on shore and we took a ride to an island during low tide.  Notice the high tide mark behind the jeep.


Also notice our GPS showing how we are in water.
