“It was about an hour’s sail south of Capetown, cutting through the water on Mike’s 110-foot sailboat Pangaea, when “it†appeared. At first, on the horizon, we noticed what appeared to be a giant ball of bait fish. The water boiled for literally a mile in every direction…only as it approached at the speed of a swift wave did we see first a nose, then another, then a dorsal fin and then a thousand of them, then more. Only then did we realize we were experiencing the rare “superpod†of dolphins. Not dozens, not hundreds, but thousands of them — so thick you could have walked across their backs had they been game for it.” Read Chase Jarvis’s blog via Neatorama
