We were kayaking across Keleakekua Bay, and going really slowly because my wife had never kayaked before, and because she really likes to stop and take pictures. I swallowed my impatience (or rather, let it go), and vowed to be in the moment. Eventually, we saw dolphins jumping up in the air (spinning), and then later, a group of 5 surfacing, then 10, then 5, and on and on and on...eventually, we saw dozens (or the same ones over and over). When we reached our destination at the snorkeling spot across the bay, we asked others there who had seen dolphins. Most hadn't, and those who had, only saw a few. Going slow, and being in the moment, is the way to go!
