We Saw A Lot Of Whales In Maui.

{Do you like my super imaginative post title? Genius, I know.}

The highlight of our trip to Maui was far and away our sunrise whale watch cruise. We saw so many whales breaching, splashing and swimming close to our boat. I think we saw over 20 whale breaches. 

The humpback whales in Alaska travel down to Maui to breed between December and April each year, so we were there at the perfect time to see lots of them. It was so awe inspiring to see such huge, majestic and mysterious creatures so closely. God truly is an imaginative Creator!

This picture below is one of my favorites of the morning. See that dot in the water near the horizon? That's a whale breaching. 

Chris went to take a picture of me and jokingly said, "Okay, whale, on three, jump. One, two, three." And the whale jumped!! We couldn't believe it actually jumped at that exact second and right in the picture too! 

My husband, the whale whisperer. 

Here's one waving hello with his flipper. 

This next picture is my very favorite. Love the whale joyfully jumping out of the Hawaiian waters and the sunrise in the background. 

Linking up to Sweet Shot Tuesday!

Huge splashes when they came down!

(I got a new hat while in Maui. Do you like it? I do. I've been wearing it almost every second of each day. It gives me fantastic hat hair.)
