Close encounter with a humpback whale
Today we had the most incredible encounter with a humpback whale. We were in a small boat, and this whale that was bigger than our whole boat, swam over to us and stayed right next to us for a half an hour. Maui is such an amazing whale spot in the winter months! Check out the video I got just by sticking my iPhone into the water next to the boat.
