Honu

I love love love turtles!!!
I didn't take this photo, but send a mahalo to the person who did, whoever they are.

This morning while out paddling, a beautiful honu swam right up to our canoe. I said hello and reached out as if to pet it. Of course, it was beyond my reach, but it made me feel like it got the friendly message, hi, it is so nice to see you ;)

That made my day!

My great, great, great, idk how many, grandfather was rescued by giant turtles when their boat overturned on their way to Okinawa. That is another story tho, next time ;)

Happy Aloha Friday wishes!
Mahalo,
Maile

Hula

I am enjoying the Merrie Monarch and happy to see the Hawaiian culture thriving.

My body is exhausted from reawakening so much Hawaii culture in my own life, but it amazes me to.

Dancing hula and canoe paddling somehow feel like a perfect fit. Both depend on the strength of your legs. As a bonus, paddling has improved my posture, which, for now, I guess I can look good while I stand, because my gluteus maximus muscles are not allowing me to sit.

Happy Thursday!
Aloha,
Maile
