Aloha Hey

This post is a bit like our holiday to Hawaii, a little rushed.

With one week too play with we decided to avoid lining up with the hordes of tourists to ponder the tragedies of Pearl Harbour, pretend to run from dinosaurs in the great valley, hula along to the swinging hips at the Polynesian shows or fall for the consumerist trappings of outlet shopping.

Instead we went with our usual holiday activities of surfing, swimming and a little souvenir shopping thrown in.

We swam with turtles most days, except at Sunset Beach, where the boys surfed within metres of a sun lounging Monk Seal, named White Spot.

This is the best photo of a turtle I could manage, eventhough they were in abundance.

That dark blob to the left is a turtle watching Bunny and DSG paddle out to the break.

Unfortunately a stomach bug caused sleepless nights and more washing than desirable on holidays. I will carry the guilt of chastising Smiley for not joining in on the holiday party just before he vomited in the garden bed, outside a surf shop. The little trooper downed a blue Gatorade (see mouth) and found a local Haliewa dinosaur to climb on. 

Bunny and I got the dreaded bug the next day and here we are enjoying an orange Gatorade to match the Sunset. 

Noice.
