Looking into the mirror at my dentist’s office in Waimea.

The view from the shelter at Kapa’a Beach Park in North Kohala.

Yes, I was still moving when I took this, but there was no traffic ahead or behind and I wasn’t going 60 mph either! I was going just fast enough for these raindrops to roll up the windshield and away, only to be replaced by others from the light shower passing overhead.

I spotted this Manta Ray coming towards me about the same time it spotted me. I thought it might come and check me out, but it clearly decided against that, dove down and then scooted away. It was the first manta I’d seen for a long time so, regardless of its response, I was very happy to see it.
