Fishies Galore!

Aloha!

Today my travels took me to Hanauma Bay for a nice snorkeling adventure! It was the first time that I had ever gone snorkeling so it was a little bit frightening for me. But after I got to the whole "controlled" breathing thing, I was fine. I was mostly scared of touching the coral and the reef. At times I had to, but I had to go against everything that I was ever taught and heard. I sure as heck didn't want to ruin their "home"! Anyways, I got to see some crazy cool fish! I don't have any pictures to share of the actual fish, simply because I had to use a FILM underwater camera. I haven't used one of those in over 10 years, so we will see how they turned out!



Hanauma Bay is GORGEOUS! It's quite literally the crater of a volcano that filled with water and then turned into a bay. Here are a few pictures of the bay itself!


We also found a fresh coconut (the locals tell me it's rare to find one, so I felt incredible lucky.) We had one heck of a time trying to get it open. But in the end it was worth it! It tasted so sweet and delicious!
I didn't get to see a sea turtle so my hunt continues. It seems like everyone except for me has seen one! *sob*

Oh well, We are still going to the North Shore, and that is supposed to be a good spot for them!
Cross your fingers!


Enjoy<3
