Travel Hawaii Scrapbook Layout

Created this Travel Hawaii 12" x 12" scrapbook layout.

While on vacation in Maui, Hawaii on the evening of Wed 3/19/08, my husband, my daughter & I were aboard a catamaran, Teralani 2, for dinner & whale watch excursion. We had to take off our shoes, give the shoes to a crewperson, roll up our pant legs & wade out since the catamarans do not come close to shore. Dinner was served below deck. Then we spent a couple relaxing hours out at sea watching & photographing whales.
