Day two

Our second day in Hawaii dished out some disappointment, but ended up being a lot of fun. We had plans to go para sailing that day, but due to strong wind, the trip was cancelled. The worse part of it all was that we could not reschedule. The next day wale season would start officially which means no more para sailing for a while. I was sad, of course, because this was one of the things I looked forward to the most.

To distract ourselves from our unrealized plans, we decided to drive further up the coast to Black Rock to go snorkeling. This would be a first for me. Paul gave me a quick run down on how its done before we swam out in deeper water. I immediately liked it. We saw some people feeding fish while snorkeling, so we came closer to watch them. It was amazing how close fish would get to people. And they were all so different: there were yellow fish, striped fish, big and small, long and flat fish. Most of them so colorful. We swam around for more than an hour, observing and diving to get close. Snorkeling ended up being one of my favorite things ever! After we left, my only wish was to see a turtle next time

Whale watching also did not happen that day. The boat crew did not find enough people for the trip, so they cancelled. We were tired and decided to go back to our "hotel". After eating some dinner, we jumped into the pool at our complex and enjoyed floating in 85 degrees water. Even after some disappointments, the day could not have been better.
