Since my parents are on a mission in Hawaii, Jeff and I decided it was time to take a trip there to visit them. Jeff's sister, Jill, and his mother joined us for most of the trip. We spent 10 days in the tropics soaking up the sun and enjoying the fairer weather. We spent most of our time on Oahu, but took a quick trip over to the big island, Hawaii, to see Volcano National Park. It was a very worthwhile trip. We were able to walk across a dormant volcano, see the glow of an active lava lake and watch the lava flow from a cliff into the ocean. It was amazing to see the power and force of nature at work. We also enjoyed the black sand, where we saw sea turtles, and green sand beach. On Oahu, we saw the enormous North Shore waves and the reckless surfers that braved them. We visited the Polynesian Cultural Center to learn more about the Pacific Islands, and honored our Navy at Pearl Harbor. One of our favorite activities was snorkeling. It took us a few minutes to get the hang of it, but once we did, we were off to explore the world under the surface. The sea life was amazing. We had a great trip and have come home with many memories.
