Day 6

 After a very long day, we slept in, and slowly started our day. We decided to drive back to the Kohala coast to look for whales. Our condo (Hale Kona Kai) came stocked with beach chairs and beach umbrella which was very helpful. We stopped by our favorite grocery store KTA super stores for some onigri mentai and musubi as snacks. We visited a couple parks where it was recommended to see whales but didn't like either. So instead, we pulled over on the side of the road and climbed a hill and settled in. It didn't take long before seeing some whales. We learned that they surface about every 10 minutes so we were ready to anticipate their movements. We were lucky that we saw them just in front of us and they didn't move very quickly so we were able to see many episodes of surfacing.








We couldn't go kayaking because there was a high surf warning - 8-11 feet surf! I was worried about our dive the next day.
