Since I'm here in the winter, I needed to take advantage of the humpback whale migration. I cancelled the original tour I had, that also gave time to snorkel with sea turtles. The thought of going underwater when being congested was completely unappealing. I booked a trip that was just whale watching and we didn't see much, as far as whales go, but it was still an amazing day to be on the water.

I got summer rolls around the corner after the watch, to eat at the Ala Moana park, next to the harbor. The captain had said there was a sea turtle near the dock and I was able to walk near there and if you look very closely, you may be able to see the turtle. At first I thought it was wishful thinking, but then I saw the head come up and then go back down and after a few times, I was convinced it was actually a turtle. Mostly the picture was to remind myself of the sighting.

| Later that evening, back at the resort, I went to get some pizza and on the way, wanted to take a picture of these very pretty koi and other fish that were all in the ponds they have around the place. |
