Saturday February 18th 2017 --- Refections

Saturday February 18th 2017 - Reflections
Here it is Saturday morning and I'm starting my blog in the actually in the morning.  Maybe I should have made the topic trade winds or lack of.  But it's morning, the day just started.  For breakfast we ate out on the balcony.



I was so excited to get papaya back that I didn't show what Clela had.  She ate a breakfast a El Monterey Breakfast Burrito with papaya.  We had a pleasant surprise by seeing a young whale just off shore.  The whale was just swimming along slowly.  I don't think the mother could have come in this close because it wasn't that deep.


Our third week is almost over.  Well maybe I'm reflecting to early, we do have four days left.  We did very little traveling  this year, makes it less to blog about.  However when I first started blogging it was just to tell you about our activities of the day.  Clela with her back had a goal and that was just to make it down to the ocean and back and she has done that and more.  Got to say we were a fine couple when we arrived we both had back problems.  Since then mine flairs up now and then, but mine is not even close to her problems.  I feel very lucky.  We both worry about each other.

We have a plan for the day, ahead of time, can you believe it.  First we are going down to the ocean, next we are going to the Whaler and lunch.

Can you believe it we got down there and there were two chairs for us.  You can always tell it's the weekend because of all the activity on the ocean.  There were people on long boards, some standing and some sitting.  There were people in outriggers looking for whales.




People were walking off shore in shallow water looking for shells.
The thing we watched the most was a couple packing a kayak with loads of supplies.  Looks like they were going over to Molokai to camp out.  It looks like a long way.  Google said about 25 miles.






Off they went on there journey.  We watch them travel across sometimes stopping to rest.  You know all the time there were out there, we saw no whales.  We stayed there until 11:30 and went up to change.

Just look what a beautiful day it is.

We changed and went to the Whaler Mall to eat.  You know we are creatures of habit.  I notice on Facebook that we went to the Whaler this day last year only we to Hula Girl instead of Leilanis restaurant.  We had a wonderful spot so we could people watch.  We got our drinks, and were waiting for our food when a group of boys were showering, you to wash your feet or body after coming out of the ocean.  If you don't wash off you end up with sticky salt all over.  Well you could tell these guys had an attitude.  On guy carried it further, he took off his swimming suit bare butt and all.  They wanted attention and we didn't give them any.  Hey these kids were not poor.  Where are the police when you need them.
Anyway Clela ordered a grilled moon fish sandwich with a Jicama salad.

I had Kaluha pork sandwich with fries. 

We did some shopping and went back to our condo.  We sat down for a shot rest, changed our clothes to swimming suits and went down for a swim.  We somehow always go down for a swim too late to return our towels.  That's okay.

Our day came to an end.  Sure seems like we just woke up and realized time is short and we finally realize there is so many things we wanted to do.

Supper was small.  Clela always comes up with something.


Ham sandwich, hard boiled eggs and potato mac salad.
See you tomorrow.
