This bus stop is sick of being stereotyped and is trying to create a new image for bus stops everywhere.


Welcome to the north shore!


I have never seen water this clear before...

Further down the beach, looking west:


Back where we started... does it get any better than this?


"Please be nice to the turtles," say the signs. When they swim out to take a nap, a lady comes over and puts a red rope around their personal space so we don't accidentally invade it. These turtles are big... they looked almost too heavy to pick up if I tried.


This turtle is unfazed by the tourist paparazzi that has gathered all around him just off camera.


Well, so far I have checked off visiting the north shore, trying to surf, turtle watching, snorkeling, beach parties, and seeing the windward coast. Other than that it's just working and hanging out with my coworkers. I miss you all - talk to you soon!
