It was a zoo on vacation!

As far as animals were concerned, there were several firsts on our vacation. At the beginning of our stay we woke up to some very familiar bird sounds.... Knock, knock. Who's there? "Your friends - the turkeys, and it's a hella'va lot nicer here than in Montana!" Why did the turkey cross the road? To get to the beach, silly! We had never seen a manta ray at Hapuna Beach, so that was very exciting to be able to swim with one, and there was also a turtle at Hapuna which, although not a first, was still exciting. On other beaches we saw many pretty birds, turtles, sea cucumbers, sand crabs, whales, and just hanging loose were the geckos and mongooses.
