Whales Singing at Keawakapu

A Missy-eye view of the best beach on Maui -- best not just because of the sand, the water, the nearby reef, the fishies and honu, all of which you can find all over Maui, but because of the insanely gorgeous view, and the happy vibe! 

Picked on odd time for a swim -- 9:30, just when the sun went behind a chubby black cloud and the wind picked up to the point where "comfortable" turned to "chilly."  Still, the sand was not yet blasting, not above the ankles, and not at a velocity to strip the skin from the bones.  So high time to hit the gently rolling waves! 

My lazy self was rewarded with a bracing swim underwater to the tune of that odd, off-key squealing sounding exactly like someone trying to tune in an old-fashioned AM radio station.  Radio Walfisch.  Humpback Maui, For the Cool Waves.  The whales are back!  Whales, we're back!
