So for those of you who still look at this blog for ideas of things to do in Hawaii here is another thing to think about doing. We climbed Diamond Head last weekend. The climb is relatively short but fairly steep at one point. You have to climb up a fairly steep concrete set of like 150 steps at one point. It is enough that my calves were feeling it when we were done. The cool part is the end where you climb out of an old world war 1 pill box. The Pill boxes were manned during both World War 1 and 2. The view is pretty cool. You can see a nice lighthouse and get a nice look at downtown Honolulu and Waikiki with all the hotels. Those of you thinking of visiting us this fall I recommend getting your tickets purchased soon. Prices are still going up.

We went to Shark's Cove with our friends Steve and Lauren and had a great time. If you are coming to visit us this is definitely something you want to check out. I was really wishing that I was SCUBA diving and could check out some of the caves and arches that we saw in the deeper water. But just in the cove we saw a turtle and tons of fish. The turtle was just coming up to get a breath of air when I took the picture. The pic with the single fish is the State Fish. Humuhumunukunukuapua'a.
