Maui



I am in Maui Hawaii this week. It is beautiful here. It is also Whale season and so we have seen many whales. They say over 9000 are in the area right now. They surface constantly. If you get a chance to visit Maui in February do it. If you like the creatures from the sea you will love Maui in February.


Look at the pictures. Mothers nursing their new babies to males fighting for the attention of a female.




































On one of the 4 snorkel excursions that I went on, there were several turtles in all sizes. Here are a few images of some of them.

Belize




Have you ever heard of the Blue Hole? It is in Belize C. A. but it is actually approx 60 miles off the coast of mainland Belize. It is a famous scuba dive spot. I did the Blue Hole last friday. We went down to a depth of 130' and hung out. We saw a 6' long Grouper and 2 large sharks. It was fun.

Belize Central America. What a great and interesting place. The Mainland is filled with Jungle and wild animals. It is south of Mexico on the Ucatahn Peninsula. In Belize there are many ancient cities called Mayan Ruins. I visited Altun Ha an ancient city about an hour outside of Belize city.
