A Workout! (AKA Climbing Diamond Head)

It was a nice (HOT), sunny, (HOT), beautiful, (HOT) day for a hike up to the top of Diamond Head.  I got my exercise for the week on that climb.  But the view...way worth it!

P1010442

P1010443

OK...after the tremendous view...it's time to head back down.  Caleb and Sam did it in 13 minutes.  Me...yeah..it took me a little longer.

Oh, I'm so jealous. I love the beach/ocean but what an opportunity for photo taking. I can't wait for our trip home to use my new camera and for us to get back to the ocean. I have my new bathing suit (and I don't quite look like a beached whale as much as I did last year anyway). I bet the pearl harbor thing was great. Gabrielle would love that. She's a WW2 history buff.
