154) Nearly Finished


Tonight is my last full night in Hawaii. Late tomorrow night I will be heading back home to freezing cold and snowy Wisconsin, which I am not looking forward to. I really enjoy spending about a month on vacations, which I know is not a luxury most can afford to do (afford in the sense of time- as I don't spend a ton of money on these vacations).




Yesterday Dave and I went to the zoo, and just walked around. It was ok, I was actually hoping for more garden type areas, but I was let down in that department. After that we went to relax on the beach for a while. I went on a swim, and ended up seeing a big sea turtle. It surfaced near where I was swimming, and when I turned around and swam towards it, I saw it swim right under me.



Later that evening I was just sitting on the beach killing time, and saw another (or the same) turtle. This time I was able to get within inches of it. I was standing on a small wall that went into the water, and the turtle was eating algae (or something) off the wall. It was pretty cool to see it so close.




I know these pics seem kinda random on this post, but I just thought I would post them as they were taken last night.
