Oahu Days 1 & 2

Well it's the end of day number two and we are having a blast! Yesterday was pretty laid back and we just spent a couple hours at the beach playing. Today was a little more adventureous. Most of the day is documented by the attached pictures. Really the only thing missing is pictures of me (Ty) getting groud into the sand while bodysurfing on the North Shore in 8'+ waves. (I'm still draining saltwater and sand out of my sinuses.) Niki also saw some whales breeching as we drove aeound the coast. All I saw was a couple water spouts but she said they were coming most of the way up out of the water before I started watching. Go figure. Please excuse the picture quality, all the following pics were taken with my iPhone, which is also how I posted this entry. On to the pics:


Nya is 'diggin' the beach.


Breakfast on the beach. The hotel actually has little cooler bags and a great continental breakfast so that you can eat on the beach. We've really enjoyed it.


The hotel: Aston Waikiii Beach Hotel


Walking back from breakfast.


Hotel room view. The zoo is actually in the bottom left.


We spent about 4 houre at the Honolulu Zoo today and the girls absolutely loved it. We'll be going back again.


On the east side of the island north of Hanauma Bay a little ways. Today we drove up the east side and back down the center.

All in all this beats staying home by a longshot!

Off to Hawaii


Well it's a little last minute but we decided to take a trip to
Hawaii! All the details worked out perfectly and were on the
airplane. Nya is so excited to spend time on the beach. More pics to
come...
