Gilded Bay But I'm still playing in the sand.

Good surprise twist.

Mac had titled his head in thought, but just as he was about to speak a possible answer, a shocked expression grew on his face. His eyes were planted out at the sea, his body stiff and ears overly erect. Quickly trotted to his side, facing out toward the sea, mirroring his position, “What? What is it?!”

She squinted her eyes, and sure enough, out emerging from the depths, were a group of giant swimming creatures. Could they be? Whales! The two of them were in awe of the giant whales, watching them keenly as they spouted mist from their blowholes, their tails gracefully breaking the water as they dive back down. 

“I do! ‘Mac, this is amazing! We finally got to see whales! And listen….” If they listened close enough, the song of the whales could be heard. She had decided to sit down next to him as they view this spectacular scene.
