Gorgeous Fall Day on Maui!

What a gorgeous day on Maui today!  Not only is the weather perfect, but the water is clear and so warm.  I paddled down towards the boat ramp, and ran into a paddling friend, so we paddled down to the boat ramp together.  On the way she told me that I missed dolphins again yesterday!  I didn’t paddle yesterday so I guess she got to paddle with a pod of dolphins all the way down to Cove Park….. oh well, I am going to be with the dolphins one of these days, I just know it.  Down at the boat ramp we saw so many turtles all around that I lost count!  My friend said it was 9 of them.  Only one of them was really friendly, popping its head up while I talked to it!  Then we ran into another paddling friend and chatted a bit.  On the way back, paddling was still perfect and calm, and my friend spotted a manta ray zipping by!  I whipped my board around and tried to follow it, but it was too fast.  The conditions stayed really perfect all the way through my swim, and it was still really nice when I left.  Some days are just like that, and when they are, it’s hard to leave the beach!
