This was our last day of cruising. But we're up bright and early for our last day in Hawaii. Today it's a Dolphin Excursion and we have to meet just off the boat at the 'Hula girl' statue. Just Sue, Steve H and Debra.
And then it was back to the ship to see the kids hula dancing - they were fantastic too. It's too bad my pictures didn't turn out well!
It was about a 45 minute drive from the port and I kept thinking we were in Toronto.
This excursion didn't involve touching, swimming or riding the dolphins. So if that's what you're looking for this isn't the excursion for you!
It was just as I'd hoped. We were in the water and the dolphins were swimming around us. Including babies. It was an honour just to share the water with them. And there were a lot of them. The pictures don't begin to show what we saw that day.
And the snorkeling was great too. We saw some turtles doing there thing as well. Again no touching etc. After all, these are wild animals. And really, isn't it best to let them do their thing? We're only visiting them.

The rest of the bunch went to see the Pearl Harbour Monuments. Sorry, I don't have any pics of this yet. This tour was another excellent pick. They even showed us where Snorkel Bob's was so that we could return the gear that Steve and Debra had rented for the day. (Snorkel Bob's will rent you a prescription mask! So there's no excuses for anyone not wanting to snorkel because they can't see anything without their glasses)
The unfortunate thing was that by the time we got back from the excursion it was after 3:00 pm. And personally I was just a bit tired. And when Steve M returned from Pearl Harbour he didn't feel too much like touring around. So the two of us chose to walk around the Aloha Marketplace and 2 other couples made their way down to Wakiki Beach. I heard it was neat.
Another couple climbed diamond head and yet another couple toured around the island and saw a lot of beaches and surfers along the way.
I did catch a great sunset on my little walk.
