Tuesday, Jan 9.

Hapuna Bay public access area for a swim.  Crashing waves and I am wearing the bikini, what a mistake. 

   
After beach time, Todd napped while I visited the National Monument near Spencer.  What an interesting and good site on the history of Hamakeahah.  

Nearby in the cove, which was a location of a small village, sharks swam about.  Typically the bay gets Black-tip sharks but the fins we saw were not black tipped and according to the rangers at the National Park, they were much larger than typically observed.  If the water was clear, we would be able to see the sharks better, but this location has a sub-surface creek flowing into it with lots of silt which makes the water black.  A bit strange considering the beautiful blue waters everywhere else here.
Before dinner we visited petroglyphs:


For dinner we joined the Bruno family at Roy’s.  Returned to cards at the camp table, cribbage.
