After breakfast, Jason and I took Maddy for a walk along the beach to a bay where some sea turtles usually hang out. We unfortunately did not see any sea turtles but Maddy still enjoyed looking at the lava rocks and walking in the water.



We then walked back down to the harbor to help my dad pick more glass. There was an unbelievable amount of glass that was being washed up to shore so we were there for a few hours. My mom met up with us as we passed the resort on the way to the harbor, so she walked with us but then continued up to the Spouting Horn instead of stopping to pick glass. So after we finished picking glass, we jumped in the van with my dad and headed up to the Spouting Horn to look for my mom. She was browsing at the craft tables so we joined her and bought some jewelry. When we got home Maddy did some whale watching with grandpa.

Jason and I took Maddy swimming when we got back for a few hours. We had to leave around 2 pm for our Captain Andy's sunset cruise so we wanted to spend time with her before we left her with grandma and grandpa, since infants weren't allowed.


Our cruise was supposed to go to the Napali Coast but due to high surf they rerouted us along the south shore. So we ended up on the water outside our resort. The dinner cruise was awesome. We enjoyed a great dinner, with a spectacular marine life show. We saw 3 different pods of spinner dolphins...hundreds of them putting on a show. They would swim around and under our catamaran and jump up out of the water and spin. It was so fun to watch. We saw a dozen or more whales too. The highlights were 2 that breached and 2 other ones that were blowing and diving less than 100 ft. from our boat. It was really cool to see the whales close up as compared to from the balcony. I would take either though. We also saw flying fish and an unbelievably beautiful sunset. It was just a perfect evening, except that we weren't enjoying it with Maddy.
