Flying Low

We had debated whether or not to take an aerial tour of Hawai'i, but in the end we decided not to because of the prohibitive cost involved.  We were so glad we didn't waste our money because our flight from the Big Island to Maui flew so low we were able to make out details below (like whales, waterfalls, and beaches).  These were some of the photos we took from the plane.

We were seated right behind the cockpit

The GPS navigation looked surprisingly similar to the chartplotter we used on the boat!

We could see humpback whales from the plane
