ALOHA - 17th DECEMBER

We woke up not so early ‘cause we were quite exhausted from the day before. The morning was cloudy but at least it was not raining. We soon headed towards nearest beach called - Kailua Bay. When we got there I was a bit disappointed ‘cause the sea was not as blue as I’ve seen on my friend’s pictures. The problem was that it was raining for more than a week so that the see was mixed with the sand and it looked a bit brown.

But anyway the beach was still sandy, with palm trees and typical life guard houses. At that moment I already missed my camera. I left it in the house ‘cause I thought it was better first to only explore the area. Mistake!!! Big one!!! And I sure won’t repeat it.

But we had fun anyway (picture taken by Mario; from left to right Ana, Manca, me and Tjaša)…

It was a bit windy so we decided to go to the North Shore to watch the surfers. On the way we stopped to see the view of green Hawaiian forests and that’s when I borrowed the camera from my friend Manca and took this picture…

After around one hour driving firstly through Honolulu and then across the island we got to there. We stopped at turtle coast were we saw a big pile of rock. At least so it looked like until we approached and saw that in between there were lying a sea turtle, which was typical and a seal which was a rare coincidence…

We continued to North where we were talking and observing the sea–sand game. That’s when the waves cover the sand and the bubbles appear…

…after that the wave moves back and the remains slowly disappear somewhere into the sand…

After a quick snack we ended up on the Sunset beach. Unfortunately this time we were too early to actually see the sunset, but well stay there longer some other time. Instead we were observing surfers (picture taken by Ana).

The day ended in the shop (more abut that topic some other time) and home made pancakes. Mmmm…

(I'm sorry I can't put the photos up here more often but I have some problems with the net... I hope it'll be better soon...)
