Hawaiian Anniversary: Day 4 Sunrise

We got up early on the fourth day to catch a sunrise whale watching tour. We boarded the Pacific Whale Foundation's boat in Maalaea. It was a perfect time for it. We were there right in the middle of the whale migration and saw several whales including at least one mother and calf pair and another female with two males showing off for her. It was really neat to listen in when they dropped the underwater microphone. The tour guide gave a lot of interesting information regarding the humpback whales we were seeing and the unique features of the bay that made it an ideal birthing ground for them.
