So one of the awesome things about living in maui and having someone who owns a charter boat business that goes to your church is, every once in a while I get to go out on the boat! This time our whole base got to go on a whale watch to go out and spot Humpback Whales! What we didn't know was that it was going to be windy, really windy! There were 50mph gusts out there making the water choppy and the whales hard to find. BUT! We did see whales, maybe around 1o of them in total. They are huge. That's really all you can say when you see a humpback whale. They can get to be nearly as long as our 55 foot boat! When one breaches out of the water a little you kind of get a glimps of their huge-ness! It was a fun couple hours of riding on a boat, getting blasted by wind, and spotting some whales!
I consider myself very blessed to get to go do something like this for free out of the kindness of someone else's heart!
I didn't get very many pictures of the whales, but here is one of them pokin out of the water a little.
