Oh wow what a gorgeous day! Yesterday was crazy windy so I only swam but today……. PERFECT! I couldn’t wait to get out there! I enjoyed calm glassy conditions for paddling and headed straight down to the boat ramp. Since its holiday time….. Maui has a ton of tourists …. So there was a boat anchored at the boat ramp with snorkelers in the water. I managed to visit with two turtles….. One big one that did pose for me to take its photo….. And one pretty small turtle. The water was so calm! A paddling friend showed up too so we chatted. Another paddling friend came in as I went out and she said that way out there were a lot of whales. That was farther out than I am comfortable going! I’m hoping that the whales will come closer to shore soon. It was so beautiful that it was hard to go in but I wanted to swim. Just after I put my board up onto my racks……. My daughter, her husband and my two grand children arrived. They are visiting from San Diego. The grand children had a blast boogie boarding! I took some photos of them and then headed out for my swim. I hadn’t gone too far, when a big turtle appeared under me! It was just meandering so we hung out for a while. Then I proceeded with my swim down to the reef. The water was not as clear down there but I saw a lot of fish anyway. Swimming back I did not see the turtle so it must have moved on or swam out to sea. It continued to be a perfect day at the beach! It’s hard to believe that tomorrow starts a new year………
