I had a wonderful Christmas in Hawaii. We arrived just in time to greet the flash floods and torrential downpour of tropical rain. The same storm that attracted California had also visited Hawaii. Vancouverites have no idea what real rain is! Luckily for us the weather changed for the better and we soaked up the sun and enjoyed daily outings and adventures. I love being on the catamaran and I went for a sail three days in a row! The first day we discovered a school of Hawaiian spinner dolphins, we followed and watched them as they were jumping and showing off for us! What a special treat to witness them in their own environment: also to be part of their environment and not just watching them on “Planet Earth” or on the discovery channel! On the second day we were very very fortunate to have a whale shark visit our boat! The fish was huge and a teeny bit scary to say the least! However we were told that it is a docile shark! Okay, I’m glad we didn’t become his Canadian snack or lunch! On Christmas day Santa was rowed in and chaperoned by two beautiful Hawaiian women. Supposedly Santa’s reindeer can’t swim so therefore he needed to be rowed into shore! The vacation was great but now it’s back to reality. Painting, video making, photography, digital art, marketing, feeding the students, husband, son and three cats!
Happy New Year to you all!
