Quiet Day at Lahaina

Jarl and Jarlina enjoyed the whale watching so much, they went back for a second day. They took the bus to Lahaina, ate a light breakfast under the banyon tree in front of the old court house, and then watch the surfers at the end of the wharf. After a light lunch they went whale watching again. This time both of them got up in front of the boat and had a great time whale watching. Two hump backs breached way out in front of the boat. The splash the whales make when they hit the water is what you expect when 40 tons of blubber hits the water from a height of 50 feet. Jarl was lucky enough to be looking through his binoculars when one of the whales flipped his tail and dove under the water. He got so excited Jarlina was a little embarrassed. After 2 hours of whale watching they went back to Lahaina, had an early dinner, and then went back to the room. They did stop at a restaurant by their hotel to get the biggest piece of chocolate cake that either one of them had ever seen.
