Lahina, Maui, Hawaii

Our adventures today. We went for a morning walk for 45 minutes. However, the absolute hilight of the day was going on a whale watching trip. The whales were magnificent. Blowing their spouts, jumping ut of the water, lifting up their arm fins and waving, lifting up their tail fins and flapping them on the water and jumping up in the air and landing on their backs and tummies. On our way back to the dock, this calf as in baby whale kept jumping and jumping out of the water. We think he jumped out at least 5 times. The naturalist said when they get tired they lay down on their mothers heads and let the mother carry them along. Sometimes their is a male guard whale that swims along with a mother and her calf. He will swim between the boat and the mother and the baby. He is a guard. The naturalist said that's because he is hoping to be the next whale daddy. It was a fabulous afternoon. There was a rainbow over the mountain extending into the ocean, with the whales jumping. It really made for a spectacular afternoon. Then we went and had a cheeseburger at a place called Cheeseburgers'! I have been thinking about a burger for about 4 weeks. It was good but I don't think it was as good as the ones at Ball's or the gazebo burger in Dallaa. Ihope tomorrow brings another day as beautiful as this one was.
