This was one incredible adventure. We hiked to a waterfall. It was beautiful jungly forest. It was lush and wet and amazing.
Kassidy and Mitch thought it was quite the fairytale forest.
One of our greatest adventures was the snorkeling we got to do.

Here go the boys to find ocean critters.
Below is Kassidy and Mitch snorkeling together. One of my favorite memories will be seeing them snorkel together holding hands out in the ocean. Loved It!
We saw tons of colorful ocean fish, sea turtles, barricudas and even a moray eel.
The best thing we did to prepare for this trip was to get them their own snorkeling gear last spring and then they spent the summer at the pool getting used to it.
Then the ocean wasn't too scary. Just fun.
And yes, I snorkeled also.
Below is one beach we visited. If you look closely Brandon is sitting on the beach and the kids are playing in the water. I took this to show how we had the huge beach all to ourselves.
Here we are at a great beach for spotting sea turtles. Yes, that is the big thing in the water.
Brandon swam along side the big creatures. This one is huge, bigger than my hubby.
There were quite a few at this beach and quite fun to see this close.

Oh Bethany...I am so jealous. It's just as beautiful as I remember. I'm so glad you had an unforgettable time. Your pictures are awesome!
Wow, I'll tell ya again what, wow!
Actually I am just speechless and happy that all you guys got to do that. I had no idea you went . . .
Yeah, ditto on the "happy you guys went" thing. Very cool "LOST" beach.
@ WB They do film LOST very near to where we went one day.
@ Bergs - Thanks to you and Zack for giving all the great info and ideas. We enjoyed picking your brains and then using your ideas.
Wow. So glad you all got to go. I can enjoy it vicariously sharing your photos, etc. Sniff*..Sniff*....just happy for you. What an experience.
Wow. Hawaii is a magical place, isn't it?
How in the world did you get that much beach all to yourselves?
Thanks for sharing. Best view of Hawaii I've seen. Where's the crowds?
@Cowboy Bob,
There were crowds at the main beach at Waikiki. We didn't spend alot of time there. Mitchell loved boogie boarding there, those waves were just his size.
Our condo was in that area, but we spent most of the week touring the rest of the island.
So glad this trip was not a "LET DOWN" for you. You guys rock! And congrats on the Rockies!
