Where is Everybody?

 The beach was exquisite this morning; small waves lapped the shore and a cool breeze wafted by. So why was it almost deserted? Especially since this is a holiday weekend.

I think I'll go back out and enjoy it a little bit more.

Crazy for Leaves

 One of my swimming buddies brought tree leaves with her on our ocean swim this morning, and it was a good thing she did.

Spinner Dolphins adore playing with floating leaves and this morning they were over the moon with joy as they had a large selection to choose from.

Lovely Softness

 What a perfect morning for a walk. A gentle north breeze kept me cool under a hot summer sun, while fluffy clouds formed around the mountain peaks. Exquisite.

Summer is definitely here, but with a lovely softness. I love living on Maui.

Summer Snowstorm

 There were so many gazillions of micro-organisms in the water this morning that it was like swimming through a snowstorm.

Except for the cold. Summer has come early to Maui this year.

Can't Take a Bad Picture

This is one of my favorite spots on my morning walks. And what makes it even more scenic is when a family sets up their beach umbrella exactly where these guys did today. I couldn't resist taking multiple photographs, both as straight-up photographs and using my camera's water-color setting. The location is so perfect that I couldn't take a bad picture.

Stumble Across

One of the fun things about swimming through underwater caves...

...is never knowing what you may stumble across inside them (not to worry, today it was just my buddy, Bruce).

Average Day

Just your average day at the beach. This is one of many beaches I pass on my morning strolls.
