Humpback Whale (see his humpback?)

The whole reason for us coming to Maui was to go snorkeling at Molokini but we got so much more! Whale Soup! That is what the Pacific Whale Foundation guides called the waters around Maui. By law they have to stop when whales are within 100 yards or so from their boat. Once they lowered a microphone underwater so we could listed to a mother and baby whale calls.

We also spent some time in Lahaina

Blue skys, Blue water, Beautiful mountains. That was my impression of Maui was we were landing.
