It has been days of dolphin extravaganzas! The dolphins are ever so playful and happy! Playing, laughing, dancing, singing and cackling with each other and me.
We are playing the fun old games of leaf drop with some dolphins so proud of swimming with multiple leaves on nose, both pec fins and or tail at the same time. They love making me do silly human tricks by leading me on underwater spins, corkscrews and curls. They get such a kick out of me! I love their interactions and tricks. It is mutual love.
I am seeing more and more of dolphins playing with bubbles. When one blows a cloud of bubbles,
another will come and splash through them! I observed a dolphin following a golf ball size bubble up from the depths toward the surface. He was "holding" the bubble on his nose as it rose, and then opened his mouth and gently held the bubble inside his open mouth. He then let it out and followed the bubble up to the surface. It was a display of finesse, gentleness and precise vision.
My friend Sarah is newly enjoying being playful in the ocean as her childhood swim skills return.The dolphins are teaching her to dive. She will soon be dancing with the dolphins with spins and corkscrews underwater!
One day I played with the dolphins for hours until utterly exhausted, completely famished and full pruneiness of fingers, palms and back of hands. I reluctantly left the dolphins to swim to shore, food, relaxation and a towel. I encountered two manta rays on the inside reef. Well, of course I had to give them equal time of following and observing their antics.
This juvenile Hawksbill Turtle is the future of the generation. He/she will propagate this endangered species. Let's hope this young, ambitious turtle finds a mate.

Announcing the opening of Kapalua Spa! This is my new second massage job!
bubbles, beach glass, coral and shells, with the sound of water throughout. Bubbles on walls as lights, chandelier bubbles, bubbles in the carpet. This brings in to my work my joy of playing in bubbles of ocean swims. My love of bamboo forest is reflected on the light treatments over the massage tables. Lobby pool is cornered by fire pots with a waterfall which flows to pool below. 
Those on exercise equipment downstairs gaze through waterfall, forgetting they are sweating on a machine.
In this news clip, Lani, my long time buddy is giving the facial. Bo, our lead therapist is giving the yummy Awa Cacoa Lomi Wrap. Try that one when you come in, it is one of our best treatments!
