The Na Pali Coast

Here are a few shots of the Na Pali Coast. Right now it's fairly dry, but we could see the tracks of waterfalls that flow during winter. The captain maneuvered the boat under a few small falls, which is considered a blessing by native Hawaiians, and took us into an open-air sea cave, which was created when the ceiling collapsed some many years ago. We also dropped anchor in a spot where only 6 companies have permits to do so and had an hour or so to snorkel. The deck hand let Kim and I know where the green sea turtles hang out, so we snorkeled over and sure enough, one was there. We stayed still so as not to scare him, but he was curious about us and swam over.
