Party Time

Yesterday was the last day of school. All we did was have an awards assembly and then went home at 10:20 a.m. I got 4 awards for social studies, language arts, the presidential award for having a good GPA all year, and the spelling bee champion award. After school was out mom took us to lunch at Subway. Then she took us to 7Eleven and let us get the hugest slurpees they had! They even had Mango-Passionfruit like the shaved ice flavor I always got in Hawaii. I'm glad school is out!

Waterfalls

Today we hiked 4 miles to some very pretty waterfalls. Then Uncle Aaron and I went back to the Seven Pools. That is where all the big rocks are that people jump off of into the ocean. Uncle Aaron told me he would buy me Hawaiian shaved ice every day for the rest of the trip if I would jump off the 18 ft. rock. It took me 20 minutes to do it but I did it. Uncle Aaron said people were cheering for me when I jumped but I didn't hear them.
Uncle Aaron tried to climb a tree to pick a coconut. He got about half way up the tree but it was a really tall tree. We found a lot of coconuts on the ground in one area and we cracked one open and ate it. It was good.

Camping

We are camping on the beach tonight. It is nice! I jumped off of a big rock into the ocean. It was awesome!

Beach

We went to the beach today. I went snorkeling again and saw FIVE sea turtles!! One was really close, about 2 feet away. It was sad because it had tumors on it's head.
I am having fun. We are going to go camping tomorrow.

Sunrise

I had to get up at 3:30 a.m. so we could watch the sunrise at Haleakala. We had breakfast at Uncle Aaron's uncles house. I fell asleep on the way home.

Snorkeling

I went snorkeling all day. It was so cool. I saw another sea turtle and lots of different fish. I took pictures with a disposable underwater camera. I don't know if the pictures will turn out--uncle Aaron says they are usually blurry. But it was lots of fun!

Sea Turtles

We went to the beach today and I saw 2 sea turtles. I rode a bike while Aunt Juliet and Uncle Aaron went on a run. I ate Hawaiian shaved ice twice today! Yummy!! I had fun getting souveniers for my family. I'm having FUN!
