K-den. Da story.
We arrived in our splendor. She skinney. Me, couple of sizes bigger. So wat. I happy. We waited for the other passengers to arrive. Dis time, two other Canadians, two locals from Kauai who live on Oahu now, a guy from Chicago, another from Maryland, and a Social Worker form Tripler with his visiting uncle and aunt from the CONUS.
With everyone on board, we went through the procedures and signed the papers. They gave the safety and rules and regulations. I remembered what happened the last time but didn't say nuttin. ha ha ha Bumby, the passengers would get scared.
Cole remembered Lucy and me after I told him who we were. He said we looked different. Duh! Obviously. Den he told us the sad news. The owner who rode with us the last time, Jimmy Hall had died in an accident in Canada. http://www.khnl.com/Global/story.asp?S=6499395
Lucy and I were sad.
The late Jimmy holding a fish eye foa Lucy the last time we went on the tour!
As the boat went out to sea, I kept thinking of Jimmy. Finally, we anchored. We were called and Lucy and I went in. I went in the cage first as the last time. Once again, it was beautiful and awesome from start to finish. Sharks under and all around the cage. Little ones, middle size and Big Bumbucha size kind. They gracefully swam right next to us.
We were fortunate to have a Baby Whale grace her beauty to us too. And also a dolphin swam near us. Yes, I believe Jimmy's spirit was with us yesterday.
Once again, like before, I sat on the boat, admiring the majestic green mountains. There I was sitting in the middle of the deep blue ocean, a child of beautiful Hawaii.
After the tour, I took Lucy to see the Birthing Stones in Wahiawa. The Piko of the island. Where the Queens gave birth to Royalty. It is a sacred place and very serene.
And then we went looking for the Homeless Keiki of Wahiawa.
Love and ALOHA,
Auntie Lynn
