2016 Weather

RWe both got up early up almost before the birds. 

Breakfast was a good one. 

We had banana pancakes. After eating two I was set for the day. 

Just a rainy day or sunny day or a dark, dank, dreary day, you know a 3D day. Come on give me some more d additives. This was going to be a beach day but I don't know now. 

 

The wind is picking up making for a rough choppy sea. Funny thing we are see lots of whales. Oh didn't I tell you we are sitting in the glass enclosure by the the big pool ocean side. The wind was so great it kept blowing my hat off. 

Scuba class

A scuba class is just starting. 

The class is free and last about an hour. 

After the class he makes the pitch to spend two hours with him in the ocean. We decided to go back to our chairs by the ocean and leave the shelter of the enclosure. This is what we saw. 

 We had less wind now and warmer. We started to see whales breaching some we could see with naked eye and some with binoculars. Now we got excited about all the breaches. Now we're counting five, six, and ten we can't believe our eyes. Now it's 15 and still they are breaching. We are going crazy. Then it's 20 then 25 and now it's 30. We thought that is amazing but they are still breaching. Maybe it's a whale contest. Now it's 35 it's starting to get scary. Finally at 38 it was over. Never, ever after all these years of whale watching did we ever see anything Ike that.

Lunch

  As you can see we are eating inside. Just not a beach day. You can't beat a good sandwich and to add Maui chips awesome!!  

Shopping 

What do you do if the weather is bad. You go shopping. Where do you go, you go to Whalers Village. When we walked in it was raining. That okay because you can go from store to store. There are two stores we really like they are stores that have items made in Hawaii not China. We are always drawn to the ocean here what we saw. 

People were debarking from the Hula Girl. We walked down to see what the beach looked like. 

You are looking at black rock. Nice beach. The very first year we went to Hawaii we stayed at the Sheraton, at the black rock. Every evening a diver goes out on black rock and dives into the ocean. New beaches to go to this year and next. 

We did some shopping for home. Then drove back to our condo. That it for today.  We had some quiche for supper. 

See ya
