A Few More Photos from Maui

We are, of course, back safe and sound from Maui. Many, many thanks to the Children's Wish Foundation for this amazing opportunity. We had some wonderful experiences, and Ronan enjoyed himself immensely. Hopefully, we'll be able to post a report by Ronan himself, but for now, here are a few more pictures.

Ronan Snorkeling in Molokini


One of our most sublime experiences of the week was swimming with sea turtles in their natural habitat. Here is one coming up for air from one of the underwater caves in which they seek shelter off the southern coast of the island. Ronan described them as "majestic".
