Wednesday January 10 (add pictures from the boat ride and Snuba)

We had such an amazing day today!!!!!
We started the morning at the beach.
We bought some body boards, because it was the same price to rent, and this way we can use it today and tomorrow.......then give them away to someone else on the beach when we go home :)
They had some pretty great waves to catch!
Elsie and I played in the sand and Port came to visit us now and then to get warm.
That kid!!!!
Needs some fat on him so he can stay warm!!!!!
We came home and had a quick little lunch before heading to the harbor.
We took a whale watching boat out on the ocean and the big girls, Porter and Dad also tried Snuba diving!
They were all so brave and did such an amazing job!
Port wasn't too sure about it, and was going to just hang to the raft, but decided to go and had such a great time!
Madi had a hard time getting her head into it......but she overcame it and got in there and rocked it!
Cassi, well, she doesn't really have much fear, especially in the water!
She had trouble clearing her ears to start with, but she figured it out and was down there like a pro!
I think Dad found who his Scuba diving partners will be!!!!!!
And they got to see seas turtles, lots and lots of fish.....and they could hear the whales in the background!
Crazy!!!!!
They got some video from down under there that I need to add here!
It was just amazing!
Elsie and I stayed up top and watched for whales and just hung out.
It was such a beautiful day!
We were worried when we boarded the ship, because it did not seem like we would have very good weather......but it turned out just perfect!!!!
We got to see quite a few whales and Elsie was so excited when we got to see a mama and her baby :)
Such an amazing experience!!!!!
We stopped at the store on the way home and got some food to BBQ on the grill by the swimming pool at our hotel.
But before we cooked that up, we went to the beach again until the sun went down.
It was a beautiful sunset and we cold see another whale in the distance.
Such amazing creatures!
After our beach fun, we went swimming again....really good idea to help with washing sand out of spaces you didn't know sand could get!
Then we had out BBQ and ended the night in the hot tub again.
We have some VERY tired kiddos!
Tomorrow we have another full day, but we board the airplane at about midnight....so I hope the kiddos sleep in, because it will be a LOOOOONG night!
