Gorgeous day!

Oh happy day, it was a gorgeous morning and just a slight breeze blowing!  Conditions were very good and I decided to paddle north today.  When I got down to Kalama Park, I didn’t see a single turtle!  I watched the surfers enjoying some small waves and then paddled south.  It was such a nice day so I decided to just keep paddling, and before I knew it I was down at the boat ramp!  The first turtle popped  up between Kam III and the boat ramp and I sure was glad to see it!  I paddled on down to the boat ramp and sat for a while and no turtles.  Three girls were nearby on paddle boards and a turtle surfaced and one of the girls freaked out and started screaming!  Of course the turtle startled, dove down and disappeared.  I wouldn’t come up either if someone was screaming at me!  After that, no more turtles surfaced.  The conditions were still perfect, though, and the wind was staying away.  I paddled back to Kam I and it was still perfect!  The conditions stayed nice all the way through my swim and it was even clear down at the reef today!  What a gorgeous day…. I sure hope it’s just as nice tomorrow!
