Iceberg near Cavendish

Yesterday evening me and Trent went to Cavendish, Trinity Bay to have a look at a huge iceberg grounded about 2 kms offshore. It was a beautiful evening, but a bit windy once we got outside the cove. We saw 2 seals, and 2 whales and had a bit of fun in the surf outside the cove. We didn't get up real close but here are some pics that I took.

Thanks for the comments.
Anytime any of you are going to be in the area, drop me a line and we'll try to hook up for a paddle. However, I will be off the island from May 15 to June 15. Me and Ang are spending a month in the Eastern Mediterranean, including 4 days paddling in southern Croatia, can't wait!
Alison, I'd say that was indeed the same berg, and the whales we saw were potheads (pilot whales).
