Snorkeling, PIZZA HUT, beach, and shopping...

Ok so Matt wanted me (Jackie) to write the blog tonight which, considering I have the worse memory known to man, probably wasn't the wisest choice. However, I promise I'll do the best I can.

We started the morning by exploring the area a bit and went to see some different sites. Vicki, Matt, and Aaron went snorkeling in the "best spot ever" while Cherie and I sat on the beach - piles of rocks- and watched. Due to rain, the water wasn't 100% clear but Matt and Aaron seemed to enjoy it. I took some pictures while they were in the water, including a couple of some really tiny crabs - they were quick!

After that, we went to Pizza Hut for lunch. I don't know about the other four but it was the highlight of my day (Pizza Hut is the BEST). We then walked around a bit and looked for some snorkel gear for me but all that we managed was to have Aaron eaten by a shark - note picture below.

Now that we'd fattened ourselves up, we thought it'd be a good idea to strip down to our bathing suits and go to the beach at our hotel. Aaron jumped off a high rock into the water but Matt chickened out! After such a couple hours spent at the beach, Aaron and Cherie went for a drive while Matt and Vicki went back to their hotel room and napped and I went back to my room and did homework. Yay.

At dinner time, we found ourselves at the Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant where the waiter convinced Aaron to down a mind eraser (yes, it did erase his mind). From there we did a bit more shopping and another hunt for a place to by snorkel gear for me. We ended up at Safeway as a last resort where the cashier literally took forever to ring up both my and Vicki's few items. Finally, we ended the night with havin' a crazy party in my suite with lots of lights, music, and dancing! Okay, maybe not. We went back to our hotel and respective suites where Matt held a gun to my head so I'd contribute to this blog. Really, I love you guys! Haha...

So, all in all it was a fun day. Tomorrow is our snorkeling day so we should have many exciting tales for y'all!

Jackie - Nice job on the posting. Thanks! We've enjoyed seeing all of the photos so far. I thought it looked a bit overcast yesterday. Still, overcast is fine because you're in Hawaii!! Bring that kitten home. Tried posting earlier and it doesn't always work. I wonder if all pizza in Hawaii comes with pineapple?! Have fun.

Nice I like the animals! Kittens sharks, and Ronald’s, oh My! Any octopuses yet?

Pizza Hut is very gourmet I do say, it’s one of life finest pleasures by far.

Snorkeling sounds cool too. Matt and Jackie, you could both take underwater pictures by putting your camera's in Ziplocs bags. Those things are guaranteed not to leak. Go on try it.. ha ha...

Also that picture of the kitten is cute, please steal it.

I didn't get too creative but I mixed two of your last pictures....
