Molokini

Today was for doing more than looking. I probably got some more whale shots but they are still in the camera. I took a snorkel trip that was supposed to go to the Coral Gardens on the West coast, but an unusual south swell had reduced visibility so the Captain opted for Molokini. Visibility when we got there was 100 feet, and we could see tons of fish.

There were whales everywhere too--you could feel them as well as see them. On the way back, I counted a whale do 22 consecutive tail slaps, where the whale lifted its tail straight up out of the water and then smacked its flukes down flat. I saw a baby whale breach-jump all the way out of the water. They certainly seemed to be having fun.

Me too.
