Hawaii Misc.
Jacob wanted to zipline, and Bryce and I hadn't tried it before. We were driven into the countryside of Hawaii, and then ended in the jungle for the zipline.
We had a lot of fun and enjoyed the waterfall and ocean views.

Day 10: These Are a Few of My Favorite Things
Day 10 was our last day on the island. The kids had their choice of activities, and what do you think they chose? The Hot Pooh.
We were on the east side of the island and needed to get back to Kona, so we spent a few hours driving. We drove around the south point of the island so we could see the island in its entirety, and we loved it.
We promised the kids one more beach trip, so we stopped at a black sand beach to break up the drive.
We were walking back to the car, thinking that the trip had been everything we wanted...except one thing...we hadn't seen sea turtles. And then, sure enough, across the beach a ways we saw them resting on the beach.
Day 9: Hot Springs and Lava Tree State Park
We went three times in a 24-hour period. The first time was cold, second time was just right, and third time was even colder. The kids loved the place, and thanks to Dakota it received the nickname "Hot Poo."

Day 4: My Ironman
Nate and Bryce before the race.
Waiting for Bryce on the golf course. Our kids were great troopers, walking and waiting in the hot sun, especially Dee.
The bike was too fast for a snapshot, but we found him twice on the run and at the finish line. I couldn't believe how energetic he was at mile 7, and his finish was strong. Congratulations Bryce!
