Sun and Fun (and some good deals!)

Wow, where did the day go? It seems like we just woke up and the day is already over. We started by stopping by Leonards bakery to pick up some malasadas (basically they are sugar donuts) and then going to the big weekly swap meet at the Aloha Stadium. This is the same stadium where they play the annual pro-bowl. There were over 700 vendors. (really, there were about five different vendors repeated over and over again). Needless to say we did find some deals on some stuff we really didn’t need.


We headed back and stopped at Snorkel Bob’s to pick up our snorkel rental gear. After a nap, we headed to Ala Moana beach for some water fun. Scott is an old pro at the snorkeling bit so he had to take a few minutes to teach me some tricks. We started at the shallow end, with all of the kids with their water wings one. (Secretly, I was jealous they had the water wings.) Once we got going, I really had a good time. We are going to go to another beach in the morning for some more.

Oh, and to the 14 pounds that I spent three months working so hard to lose before we left, don’t worry, I have found you in the margaritas, and the Cheesecake Factory, and Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville, and the shave ice, and the malasadas. Diet starts again next week!

Not many pictures from today. We did take some with the underwater waterproof camera. Who knows if those will even turn out.

Breakfast at Leonards.

Really, it's deep fried and covered in sugar. Make it bacon flavored and you have the trifecta!!!

Our tickets to spend money on swap meet crap we don't need and can't figure out how we are going to get home!

They are in the process of working on the stadium for next year's Pro-Bowl.
