A Synchronicity Story
When I was in California in February 2014 with my mom & dad, we planned on taking a day trip to Laguna Beach. The night before we left, I just had this feeling that I would be out on a boat whale-watching the next day. Logically, it seemed like it could be possible but I didn’t have any plans or any idea where to go. I’m also the type that likes to plan and know ahead of time what I am doing, but in this case I kept an open mind.
Upon arriving to Laguna Beach the following day around 11 am, we walked down the beach and I asked someone running by if they knew anything about whale watching. He told me that I would have to drive about 10-15 minutes further down the beach. We walked back up the strip to go through a few stores, and I asked someone else if they knew. She told me the same thing, and that the last boat normally goes out in the early afternoon. At that point it was already 12:30pm.
By the time we got back to the car it was already 1pm. Even if a whale watching boat was still available, I didn’t know where to look for it as I did not have internet usage on my phone without wifi to check. I looked through attractions on the GPS and came across a harbour nearby, so it was worth a try. By the time we drove to the area, we had to make made 2 more stops to ask questions. I look down, and it was 1:25pm! I definitely had my doubts that this was going to fall into place.
Finally, we drove by an area where I saw a large group of people walking to a boat. I saw the sign, ‘Captain Dave’s Whale Watching’, and the numbers 444 on a placard beside the stairs showcasing the address. Now I was beginning to believe that I was being synchonistically guided. (I see 444 in so many places, and attribute it to being on the right path)
I sprinted up the stairs to the booth as fast as I could to see if there were any spots left. I was out of breath as the lady behind the counter did her checks. She then looked up at me and said they had 1 spot left! I was in awe and knew it wasn't a coincidence.
I was meant to be there.
The whale watching tour was incredible, as we saw grey whales, california sea lions and a massive pod of pacific white sided dolphins! It just can’t get much better than that.
Trusting your intuitive hunches will lead you to magical places and experiences, if you’re willing to take the next steps..
