Hard to believe it's been 4 years since we saw the Chapmans! Like any time with good friends we picked up right where we left off (minus the obligatory talk of how big our kids have gotten) and didn't miss a beat.
Sharon could be my sister (except no family could take THAT much organization) so it's cool that we were separated at birth ;) Between the two of us, we managed to pack in a few fun things in 10 days.
In no particular order, and in various groupings, we managed to....
Go on an 8 hour fishing charter. (Which turned into a 12 hour fishing charter where Jack caught the only fish!) This is an Ono fish, better known as a Wahoo. Cool right? Tasted delicious too!
Set sail for an awesome sunset catamaran ride
Hit the waters for a shark experience (or a walk on sea glass beach and some shopping if you are a sane person).
Hike Diamond Head and Koko Head
Koko Head was a strenuous hike (so they said, I was occupied with first day of school stuff) but totally worth it at the top!
Make sure to click on this photo to get the full panorama of their view!!
Create one very fancy, super blingy, one of a kind water bottle and head off to the first day of 3rd grade!!! (Nope, I can't believe it either) We do so enjoy pushing the limits of our Catholic School uniform ;) Notice the belt has glitter stars on the sides too. Rules are for sissies!
We also found time to lounge around on at least 4 beaches, but the "look at me so I can take your photo" shot was out of my grasp. Teenagers.
These two were much more cooperative!
We had nearly perfect weather the entire time
I guess the only bad part was that these two didn't really hit it off ;)
Oh well, guess you can't force it!
Ok, back to our itinerary...
Paddleboarding
Jumping
And eating. You name it, we ate it!
There was also about 5 or 6 rounds of golf, a trip to the Arizona Memorial, shopping at Ala Moana, and of course a few hours at swap meet.
A hui hou kakou...until we meet again!
