Hawaii!! (the first 2 days)



So is this a beautiful view or what!! This was the view as we walked down to the beach and how is was so wonderful!!



As you can all see relaxing really suits Dan, he was so relaxed, I loved seeing him that way look at the ocean right behind him and it was so warm, it has totally ruined going to the beach here, there was no wind blowing the sand in your face or clouds covering the sun, oh it was great!!




As we walked along the property at the Mauna Lani property and walked thru the palm trees and ponds by the ocean we came across these really cute turtles I was told that it was quite a sight to see 3 of them at once, and they were just some of the wonderful sights, all the bright yellow fish and different colored fish not to mention the Eals (yuck), but I have to say that we did see many whales jumping up out of the water it was really neat!



This was the scene of the ocean as we were on our walk now mind you the sun is going down and it was still warm out we had just gotten out of the water and a nice relaxing time onthe beach.




Dan and I decided to take a bike ride along the property and stopped along the golf course and sat on a bench and just looked over the ocean and I have to say I was in awe at the beauty of it all, with the lava rock in the background, you should have seen the way the waves crash onto them. After the beauty of it all we were back to the house to get ready for the Zip Line, check out these pictures below it was so much fun. Even Calvin had a great time and it was his first time going, Margaret had gone a few times in the past.




Ok so this was us before we went up the mountain to the zip line course we all loved Calvin's helmet we called him Pookie all day long:)


This was Dan on the line he was also videoing it on his i-phone at the same time it was so much fun.



We were having a good time!

When we finished we took a picture with our guides they were great fun! After we finished we enjoyed a great dinner at The Bamboo House, the food was good and they even had a little store in the restraunt with some bery beautiful things. What a great time we were having.
