I had been intending to go into the ocean for many months now. I never found the time. I knew I needed to go to cleanse and release pent up spiritual baggage. I had an opportunity to hiuwai on Maui at Kapalua but missed that opportunity due to a kanalua na'au. I had even promised Mr. Pohaku that I would get him into the ocean on Maui but never made it. Finally, the stars were aligned yesterday afternoon and I made it to Magic Island at Ala Moana right before Twilight. The water was warm. The sky clear with a smattering of clouds drifting by.
