Boy and Turtle (Black Sand Beach)
Originally uploaded by Prairie Brown
One of the things Michael most wanted to do while we were in Hawaii was to see a sea turtle, up close and personal. We encountered our first sea turtle at the Hilton in their fabricated lagoon. The turtles there are so used to people that it came right up to us and let us feed it leaves and pat it on the head!
Later in the trip, we had a chance to snorkel with wild sea turtles (Michael has pictures). On our last day, we stopped for a while at a black sand beach, and were thrilled to find a group of sea turtles basking in the sun on the beach. Michael flopped right down in the sand and got acquainted with one, as you can see.
