In the Water




Today I went SCUBA diving.  I went to a wreck off of Waikiki and then we dove a small reef.  We saw this beautiful Spotted Eagle Ray, several turtles and many fish.  It was so nice to be back in the water.  The day weather was great.  Very calm seas and fairly clear water.  We even saw a turtle when we were boogie boarding the other day.

beach by our house


This is the beach right by our house.  It is only about a 3 minute walk.  As you can see the water is really calm and clear.  And the best part is that there is almost never any people there.

This is just a picture of a pretty beach with the waves crashing on the rocks.  The sun is just starting to break through the clouds.

PCC
















We got free tickets to the Polynesian Culture Center as part of my orientation for school.  We had so much fun.  We especially liked the Tongan village and Samoan village.  And the night show was incredible.  In the PCC you get to make polynesian crafts, play games and watch various shows.  Adyson even got a fake maori tattoo!  She tried to eat it.  
We went to Haliewa and got original Hawaiian shaved ice.  Adyson really likes it.  She screams if you don't give her a tasted when you eat one.  And the prices are pretty reasonable.  Only 1.50!

Boogie Boarding

This is me right before I wiped out.  I ended up on top of this wave and then it slammed me on the sand.

Manoa Falls


This is Manoa falls.  We hiked there last weekend with Patrice.  The Falls are about 100 feet high.  I took about 45 minutes to get there and was a really pretty trail.
