My favorite memory #4376: Halfway between Long and Crown Islands near Madang, Papua New Guinea, swimming with a pod of several hundred pygmy sperm whales.
We parked my boat in front of the pod, got in the water, and just let them swim past us. They were bumping together and shedding huge sheets of silky grey skin - the water was full of it. You could clearly see their eyes moving to look you over as they swam past.
