Hawaii!

Almost every day, Dane and Trent dug a hole.  Sometimes big, sometimes small, but always a hole. 

Don't they look so happy?!

What trip to the beach would be complete without a sand mermaid/merman?  I'm not sure how this turned into an obese one, but it was fun.

This is a pano that Dane took of our beach where our hotel was.  Yeah.  It was awesome!

At the Dole plantation.

Dole whip!  Highly recommend it.


We love cut-outs!


This little guy needs to grow on a plant for 2 years before it will be ready to harvest.  Holy cow!

At Haliewa Eats.  A Thai curry restaurant.  All I can say is yum!

The best curry that we have ever eaten in our lives!

Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor.  Awesome.

Here's Stephanie and Trent, our awesome friends who went with us to Hawaii.  She did a term at BYU Hawaii and so she had lots of great "local" knowledge about the stuff to do on Oahu. 

Can you see that little white line going up the middle of the mountain?  That's the "Stairway to Heaven" hike.  We got up at 5 am to hike it one morning, but didn't make it up...

So sad that we couldn't go on the hike.  We got turned away by a security guard at the base.


Hiking up to Laie Falls.  It was quite a view.

Swimming at Laie Falls.  It was freezing!

Our last night, we went to the Polynesian Culture Center and had the classic Luau/show night. 


Laie Temple.  We wanted to do a session but it was closed for cleaning, so we just stopped by the visitor's center.

Hanauma Bay.  Spent the day here snorkeling!

Catching some zzzz's at Hanauma Bay after snorkeling.

Looking over Hanauma Bay.  Oh, and no.  We didn't see the Obamas while we were there. :)

Saying goodbye from the airplane.  We had such a great time!
