Hawaii Trip Day 3: Sea Turtles

We woke up to this view from our balcony on our 3rd day.  It was beautiful!  We were up and out of our hotel around 8 am and at the local Target less than 10 minutes after it opened for the day!

We dropped our Target purchases off at the hotel and headed back to that beach on the North Shore past Haleiwa where we found the sea turtles. 
  It's a beautiful spot and Brian was anxious to get in the water with the turtles!  We met and visited with a lady on the beach that was staying in a studio apartment in the house in the picture and I think if we go back to Oahu, that's what we want to do next time!











 We saw 4 or 5 different turtles while we were there and one that was missing a front right flipper.  They came right up to the shore and we were so close to them!  We never did touch them but there was a few times where we had to move back because they were coming to us!  

Here's a few videos we took of the turtles:

This is the one missing it's front right flipper.
And this is our boys favorite turtle video to watch!  At the end you'll see the reason that Brian stopped swimming with the turtle...it pooped!
