Is it all worth it?
One of the best moments of my life was snorkeling in Kealakekua
Bay on the Big Island of Hawaii (this is where Captain Cook was
worshipped as a God and then subsequently stabbed to death by
Hawaiians (1779)). I was about 1/2-mile out in the bay, drifting
and look down at three reef sharks (about six feet long). They
swam off suddenly and I looked up to see that a school of dolphins,
perhaps 60 in number, had entered the bay. They were 200 yards
from me and I started swimming toward them. By the time I'd
moved 10 yards, the school was all the way down at the other end
of the bay (1/2 mile in the distance).
I gave up.
