Just a few pictures to put in the glorious Cassie blog. yeah right, I don't write in this thing that often!
This is Mr. Cockroach! There is plenty of them to see there. While I was staying with my sister I encountered two rather big ones. The first was stuck in the bathroom sink. He apparently tried to crawl UP the sink and got super stuck when the plug on the bottom is. That ended up with me taking pity on him, scooping him up with a disposable cup and throwing him outside. This feller up here is one that dropped form the light in bathroom almost onto my sister and then proceeded to crawl into the bedroom and under the dresser. My sister ended up doing a karate chop with a flip flop and this is how the sucker ended up. Dead. With some of his innerds hanging out!
This was the Polynesian Cultural center. This lady was one in the canoe parade.
This was in pearl Harbor at the Arizona Memorial. This is the actual USS Arizona ship that sank in WWII. It is still under the water with over 1700 men entombed in it.
This is the wall of all the men that died in the USS Arizona December 7, 1941. There is a smaller wall on either side that shows the men survived that are now interred with their ship mates after they have passed. They are cremated and put back into the ship by specially trained scuba divers.
A view of the USS Arizona memorial from the boat that you have to take to get there. This is the monumnet that lays over the actual boat.
Sunset at Waimea Bay where previously I was cliff jumping! So much fun!
This is Isabella the turtle. She is 250 pounds of awesomeness! This is at Turtle Bay where there is an abundance of turtles during egg laying season. However, Isabella was the only turtle there this day. The Hawaiian name for turtle in Honu.
A rather large snail that I caught in the front yard of my sister Holly's house. He was kind enough to slow down for me so that I could pick him up!
Sunset at Waikiki beach.
Hanauma Bay where I snorkeled and got to swim with a sea turtle! Many many fish are there amongst the reef. It is so beautiful that I wish I could just stay there forever!I really enjoyed Hawaii and hope to go back REALLY soon!
