DAY THREE
Today actually ended up with decent weather! We had enough sunshine down at Kuhio Beach to lure us to jump in the water. But only moments later.. yep.. rain. So we pitched the beach and returned to the hotel and.. sun! And this time it managed to stay out. Hotel guests and locals alike were at the bar and pool soaking it up. We sadly watched Miami defeat Boston in overtime before going to eat dinner at Margaritaville. I bought a nice polo at a sweet price, and my mom got us a free and huge dessert. Jessica met up with us at a lookout just past Diamondhead and we explored that some. Seeing Diamondhead Beach for the first time, a fav surfing spot on this end of the island. End day 3.
DAY FOUR
By far the most eventful day for us. We had breakfast early at this trendy little breakfast spot- Cafe Kaila. Then headed east and caught some of our first real sun at Kailua (see pic). It was here that we also had the opportunity to swim with some very laid back sea turtles. These honu were pretty chill, and let us hang around them as they ate and surfaced for air.
Next, we stopped by a Buddhist temple that I am certain was used in LOST. After the temple, we continued north to the shrimp trucks and shrimp farms. Watching dad deal with his spicy shrimp was quite entertaining. We stopped by Sharks Cove on our way through Waimea, then hit up some shops while in Haleiwa. Long day. Time for sleep. Free day tomorrow!
