We headed back to our cabin at Bellows AFS after Pearl Harbor. We wanted to get in some good time on the Boogie Boards we had rented on the base. Our plans were almost spoiled upon learning there was a shark warning and everyone had been pulled out of the water. Say no more when people say SHARK, I have no problem listening. After about 45 minutes they said we could get back in. I'm not sure who decides these things.....really is the water safe???? It was a little nerve wracking and I found myself combing the waters for signs of a Shark more than once. Luckily we found none!
Jakey made a castle fort on the beach. It was strong against any attacks he told me. When I asked him who the attacks were from he said "the water or bad guys, you know, mom like the Germans!" I guess he was listening to all of our earlier conversations about WWII.
Happy feet in Hawaii!
Once we got Boogie Boarding we had so much fun! Hanna had gotten knocked over by a huge wave the day before, but luckily she was still willing to try. Carter once again proved to be an animal!
I loved it and rode a lot of waves, but no one snapped a picture of me darn it!
Once again, I was determined to give my mom the "Full Hawaii experience". When I told her she needed to give Boogie Boarding a try, I was sure she would say no because she is not a great swimmer. To my surprise the next thing I knew she was out there on a board riding a wave! Nothing stops this sixty something year old! She mostly liked it until her board got banked on the sand and as she was trying to get up the waves kept knocking her over. Her and I were laughing and I was taking pictures, and not helping ...and we had a little mishap. Her HAIR got wet. This is a bummer for my mom she does not like when here perfectly styled hair gets wet! ....she was a good sport about it however! Hang Loose Gr'ma!
Carter spent a lot of time on these rocks where there were a lot of little itty bitty crabs. His goal was to catch one, but they were hard to find and he never quite got one.
