Hawaii: day 3

12.26.2014

I thought of something I should have added to my Christmas day post.

----

Of all the days we spent on our beach, Christmas was the most busy.

It wasn't super bad, like Waikiki, but we saw quite a few people.

The thing I wasn't prepared for was, um, hello, the teensy, tiny, itty, bitty bikinis that all the girls were wearing.

When we go to CA it's always off season and you hardly see anyone in a bikini. In fact, I can't even remember if we've ever seen anyone in a bikini in all the years we've gone there.

But Hawaii?

EVERYONE.

And apparently thongs are in.

I have now seen the full on hiney of a lot of complete strangers.

What the what?!?!?!?

Why?

Why?

Why?

And let's not forget the girls wearing a nude colored bikini top with black bikini bottoms, so that from a distance it totally looks like they're topless.

I tried not to think about what all my boys were seeing.

Ugh.

People!

Put some clothes on.

We don't want to see your full moon, no matter how cute/sexy you think it is, 'cause lets be realistic, you can't even see it. But we can. Oh we can.

End of soapbox.

We started out every morning with a walk.

These pictures are funny to me because the big rocky mountain in the background appears to be really close. It was not close, it was really far away.

Just so ya know.

A little Tarzan action.

She said this killed her arms!

Different tree, different swing.

Much easier!

Our little beach bungalow as seen from the beach.

Every time we go to the beach the boys play the "throw the soda bottle into the waves and retrieve it" game.

At some point this afternoon, Bekah declared herself the "Queen of Hawaii."

We bought some snorkel gear at Costco that the kids were excited to try out.

Our beach wasn't that great for snorkeling.

All you could really see below the water was churned up sand.

This was the view from the other side of the house.

I couldn't get over how the mountains in Hawaii were so green and SO gorgeous.

It was pretty cloudy.

We ended the day with some pretty good boogie boarding.

And Harry worked some more on his boogie-skimming. Or is it skim-boogieing?
