That meant that we could get on the early bus to Hanauma Bay which is at 8:50 AM. This is much better, it turns out, than going later because this bus isn't crowded. It was relatively overcast at Hanauma Bay, but the water was okay. John decided that because of his cold, he didn't want to go swimming today, and somehow this morning after I took his snorkeling stuff out, I forgot to put my fins back in the beach bag. However, buoyant as I am, it didn't really make much difference. I think I may not bother to bring fins in the future. They take up half a suitcase. I also discovered today that I can float in 6 inches of water. I went to the trouble to see how far ashore I could float. Pretty much till I got high centered on my belly. Of course, since this is a whale sanctuary, I drew quite a bit of attention with this move, as there don't seem to be any other whales washing up on shore.
I went to the fabric shop today to look for some tropical Christmas type fabric for a tablecloth and ended up meeting a woman who was buying silk. When I asked what she was buying it for she said she was a harpist. We ended up having a good conversation, I bought some beautiful silk, we walked home together, and agreed to meet tomorrow for lunch.
John, not surprisingly, thinks this is a bad idea, but it's not like he has anything better on his agenda.
