Waimea Bay

Sean wanted to take us to this beach he once went to as a kid, that had crazy surf.

It was all fun and games until Bree's major smackdown by a HUGE wave.  She's trying to smile, but she got pretty beat up.  (We didn't realize until we got to Australia, that my poor kiddo suffered a mild concussion.  Nothing like giving the healthcare system on the other side of the world a test drive while on vacation....  Happy to report that after several miserable days of headaches and nausea, she is fully recovered. 💙)

 

Ziplining at Keana Farm

I can't believe I agreed to this, but we went ziplining today!  

Holy crap was I scared.  Sooooo afraid of heights....  Definitely trying to put on a brave face in this photo as we were getting ready.

No fear for this one.

Bree & Sean

One of the stations had a macadamia tree.  Free snacks!  Yum!

These two amazed me.  I ended up having a fun time, too.  Pretty sure I'd do it again.  :-)

 

Pearl Harbor Memorial

And a pretty mocktail for my pretty girl at dinner tonight.

 

Kailua Beach Park

It took about 5 minutes last night upon arriving in Waikiki Beach to determine that a rental car was going to be essential for the next few days.  Waikiki Beach is INSANE!  Not at all relaxing.  So today we ventured out to explore other parts of the island.  

In her element.

 

And We're Off!

Australia (by way of Hawaii).  Here we come!

 

One More Meet

Last meet before VACATION!! 

Aiden has his very own personal cheerleader.  :-)

Lizzie & Bree -- Very sad that they won't see each other again for 3 weeks.....

 

Getting Prettied Up For AUS

 

Not a Date

Yikes!

Sean let him drive the truck to the end of our dead end road and back!😬

He wasn't a fan!  LOL!  By next summer he'll be ready for drivers end.  Time is flying!!

Physical Test

Today was the intense physical test for Bree's Taekwondo blackbelt.  No surprise - she nailed it!
