Pictures from afar!

Here are some pictures for you guys. Please pardon all of my spelling throughout this blog. I don't know Hawaiin.

The first night we were here we stayed in Honolulu. The next day we went and saw Pearl Harbor, a very humbling experience, and snorkled at Hanama Bay (a sunken volcano, now a wildlife preserve). We hit up the Polynesian Cultural Center the next day (after some beach play of course) and that thing was amazing. We got tribal tattoos and watched an awesome IMAX about coral reefs around the world.

Our room in Honolulu, it sat on Waikiki beach:

We then flew over to Maui and are in a little city called Lahiana. We're right on the beach here.

Here is the view from our little porch outside of our room.

Yesterday we took surfing lessons and we all did pretty good. Although we only had 3-4 feet of water before you greated the reef below with your (insert body part name here). My introduction happened to take place between my shin and the reef and it punched a nice hole into my skin and bruised the bone. I now literally have a BB sized hole in my shin where there used to be skin. It felt awesome. I have never felt so alive.

Today we're off to go parasailing and embark on whatever other adventures that may present themselves. Tomorrow, a glass bottom boat with some snorkeling.

We love you guys and apologize for having such a good time without you. I can't wait to come here with all of you!

Love,

Julian & Nat
