Turtles come right up on the reef to eat sea weed!

We spent the day at a beach on the North Shore of Oahu, where the turtles come right up on the reef to eat sea weed!  Just where we were, I counted sixteen turtles!  You can even scoop up the sea weed and go into the water and feed them by hand.  It was amazing!  This turtle has sea weed hanging out of his mouth….. so funny!  I don’t know if I will paddle on this trip, but the swim I had today was fantastic.  I swam with about 15 turtles, all around me and I saw so many fish!  I even saw two large schools of fish that swam right through me!  One school was fairly large,  deep blue colored fish with funny little yellow fins and the other school was a striped tropical fish.  It was a terrific spot and what a beautiful day!  Tomorrow we return to Maui and it will be back to paddling for me!
