HANAUMA BAY
HANAUMA BAY
This is where John went snorkeling years ago. He wanted to take me there to enjoy the beach, it was awesome. The bay floor is actually the crater of an ancient volcano that flooded when the exterior wall collapsed and the ocean rushed in. The live coral and tropical fish were beautiful.
We got a little sun bathing in too.
Our first encounter of Hawaii's most endangered speices.....NOT.....The chickens!
More information and pictures to come about these little creatures.
HALONA BLOWHOLE
Grandma and Grandpa wanted us to make sure we checked out the Blowhole, so here we are.We watched some people down in the cove near the blowhole,the waves were towering over their heads, we decided to stay up on the lookout. Didn't get the greatest picture, but it was also a little smaller than some blowholes we have seen.
NORTH SHORE
Our drive around the north shore. BILLOWS AIR FORCE BEACH AND CAMPSITE
We checked out their cabins and beach
Billows have a beautiful camp ground.
On our way back we stopped to take some pictures of these beautiful trees. They are like a canopies shading the ground. They were John's favorite tree. The Island had these and many other gorgeous trees.

Evening was approaching and I got this cool picture of the sun peeking through the trees when we stopped at a beach for John to stretch his back.North Shore
DOLE FACTORY
Johns parents wanted us to make sure we went inland to see the pineapple farms and check out the Dole Pineapple factory. Here is a picture of one of the farm fields.
The factory
As we were traveling back to the hotel the sun was shining through the clouds, it was an awesome site, I took a quick picture before it disappeared.
