It was just one of those days.  It started out a bit breezy and then the wind just stopped,  and the  ocean turned into a sea of glass!  Perfect paddling conditions!  I encountered my first turtle right out in front of Kam I.  It was a fairly large turtle and it circled me and then surfaced  twice to get a good look at me!  I just sat on my board watching this turtle swim under my board a couple of times and then it swam on.  I headed south towards the boat ramp and when I was passing Kam III, I spotted another turtle!  Down at the boat ramp it was really calm, and I got to visit with two more turtles there.  Paddling back was just as nice and I paddled out to the quiet zone to sit for a bit.  It was so nice out on the ocean that it was difficult to paddle in!  I was lucky enough to get in a nice swim while the conditions were ideal too.  Great day!
