Last night, I took a detour “by accident” and ended up driving by the ocean just at sunset. I turned in a side street to watch it and found parking straight away.
As I am admiring the beautiful orange, my favorite of all favorites, sunset orange, I see two woman with binoculars looking in another direction. I get behind them to see what they are looking at, maybe a seal or a boat. Just as one of them says “Oh my god!”, I see the dorsal of a whale come out of the water! How magical to get to see the sunset and a whale, by accident!
I am grateful for being at the right place at the right time. How did I get so lucky?
