We are now at the “tail” end of whale season, and what a season it has been?!?  The numbers increase every year, making 2009/2010 the best year yet.  It’s was a tremendous season, like whale soup out in Maalaea Bay!  We still get a glimpse of the late bloomers, but it’s more like right place right time to see them.  We’ve been hit by a cold front over the past week, making it a little breezy out there.  Not that it stops the newborn whales from getting their exercise for the trip North!  They are collectively on their way back up to Alaska to their feeding waters.  It’s always a bit sad to see them go, but I suppose we can give them a break.  After all, how would you like not eating for over a month?  Have no fear, just a few summer months and then they will be back in full force.  They are absolutely magnificent creatures, and Maui is so lucky to have them as guests for over 5 months of the year!
