I was in Hawaii recently, on the Big Island - and was on the shore waiting for my family who were snorkeling nearby.

A tour group happened to came by and the guide explained that this place, Kealakekua Bay, was where Captain Cook was killed by natives in 1779 - in fact there was a “X” carved into one of the rocks in the exact spot where he was killed - and we could see it b/c it was low tide. I would have never known this, of course, and couldn’t wait to tell my family.

Later that night, we looked up Captain Cook and learned about his explorations and how he had died (very sad).
