The beach(es)
We pretty much spend part of each day at a beach somewhere. We hung out at Turtle Bay, Waimea, Sunset and Pounders Beach.
This is Pounders Beach right by our house
We stopped at Sunset Beach after Matsumoto's for shave ice
Before the trip I purchased an underwater camera. It turned out to be lots of fun.

Tyken remembered going tobogganing when they came home for Christmas in 2009.
Tobogganing Hawaiian Style
Packing up to leave Waimea Beach
One day Angie and Mike took us to this private cove.
We even tried fishing at Pounders Beach
But no fish - so we went to bed hungry that day.
I like this picture of Tyken that Jamie took.
I enjoy going for long walks on the beach with my girlfriend
(that sounds so corny but its true)
These are from the original pier from the early days of Laie when they had the sugar factory
Tyken and Brylie are like little fish. They love the beach and the water
Tyken loves to body surf
He'll ride a wave in
and then he's immediately watching for the next wave
Brylie loves it too.
We saw whales a couple times. The black dot on the horizon is a whale jumping out of the water.
We tried paddle boarding
We also rented a paddle boat
My experience was "swimming with the turtles"
But I did stand too.
Right by our house we discovered that many turtles hung out by the rocks.

This is the best picture I could get of the turtles. I have a fear of heights so I didn't get close enough to the edge of the rock to get the good pictures.

GREAT beach photos!
Tobagganing, body surfing, whale watching, turtle watching, paddle boating (both kinds), private cove. . . what more can I person ask for.
Looks like a PERFECT Hawaii vacation!
Forgot to add the fishing experience in Hawaii . . . did you catch anything?
Have to get back to Hawaii to try some off these activities.
Anybody else going to BYU Hawaii so we have someone to visit?
Wow. You folks had a great vacation. Didn't seem like you missed anything. There certainly is a lot to do in Hawaii. Glad you were all able to enjoy it together.
Loved all the pictures you put on the blog of your vacation.
I second all the things that Sharon and Mom said. You sure did a lot in a little time! It all looks amazing.
The underwater faces are keepers.
