Season finished, new season begins!

That´s true! Here in Futurismo we never stop! Well....except on the 25 of december.
We are on the sea again. The weather, despite the winter time, is very god. We have been out for 8 times and with success.
Untill now we observe sperm whales, common, bottlenose, risso´s and atlantic spotted dolphins.
It was a half surprise with the spotted dolphins, because we saw then on the 31 of december, but the fact is, for the first time ever, we observe this seasonal specie in january. And it´s a very large school with hundreds of small babies. It´s probably the reason they are still around.
