Today was mostly uneventful. We did go snorkeling at a new beach (new for us but not Mema & Grandad). It is called Oneuli (o-nay-oo-lee) and it means Black Sand. There was a lot of beautiful coral and fish in the water. We found a turtle and watched him a bit. He was eating, not sitting and trying to hide so it was neat to see him. The biggest thing I learned today is not to pick a fight with a lava rock. It will always win. Luckily, Greg saw I was about to clash with the rock and shoved me over a bit or it might have been worse. As it was, the rock simply was reminding me who's in charge out there and it's definitely not me. I have a small patch of "reef rash" and a bruise to go with it.
This afternoon we spent at Big Beach. When we first got there, the waves were coming from many different directions and the wind was up so it was pretty choppy. I went in for just a bit. Your dad stayed in a little longer than I. Greg and I walked up and down the beach. There are two lifeguard stations at the beach now so it looks a little different.
Tomorrow we rent a Jeep and go to Hana for the day. We'll talk to you at some point.
We love you. Take care of each other. Cody, have a great first day at band!
Mom
so how big is your bruise?
