Aloha! I LOVE Hawaii!

Berkeley and I just got home from our vacation to Oahu. It was the best trip I have ever been on. There is nothing better than waking up to the sound of the ocean outside your window and the consistently warm weather. We had very few set plans, so every day was very relaxed. We played on as many beaches as possible on all sides the island. We kayaked, snorkeled, hiked, body boarded, surfed, and I did my fair share of sun-bathing. It was a perfect trip. Here are a few pictures to give you a sample of what the vacation was like. I have videos too. I will upload those in my next post.

At the beautiful arboretum(thanks for the spelling clarification Cam!)...which is a natural tree park.

Caged in the bamboo jungle like animals!

There were sea turtles everywhere at this beach!

This is Ron. He speared this fish!

Walk to the Hawaii Temple.

Kayaking at Hukilau Beach

No ladies...He is taken...

Lexi and I at the beach loving it all!

For all you LOST fans out there, here I am standing in front of James Sawyer's hut!

The Ward cousins pretending to be sea turtles.

LOST Fans: This is the church Mr. Echo began building last season..or was it two seasons ago?

Another cool one at Look-out point.

Berkeley snorkeling.

Ahhh...the ultimate form of relaxation!
