Spent New Year's day hanging out at the Outrigger Canoe Club. Sherry and Robert were kind enough to grant us passes to their private club. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Here's a view from the water outside the club, looking back at Diamond Head and the club.
The kids at the start of the day, or is it the start of the race. Nate has been trying so hard to keep up and today was no different. Although he came back a few minutes later to tell us his raft was feeling squishy. Turns out it lost some air and we needed to blow it up further.
Here's Nate showing everyone how to surf.
Nate and Chloe sharing a surfboard and flashing the Shaka Brother or hang loose.
Mike put on the inner tube, but not the pink one this time. He was showing us all how to do the Tahitian dance we learned the night before at Germaine's Luau.
Nate and Chloe trying to fight for balance control on the board. Nate had an easier time dropping to his butt on the board, but Chloe was clearly the leader at rocking the board.
Nate loves riding the waves in his tube. When asked, this week he says he prefers Hawaii over the snow. Quite a change from a week ago when he preferred the snow and never wanted to leave.
Diggin in the sand.
The cocktails were great, company even better. Love traveling with the Cottle's.
Shayne playing it cool on the beach, had to have is iPod on the whole time. At least he took off that purple sweatshirt he insisted on wearing. Teenager's, get your's while they still know everything.
Nate did really well at keeping his hat on today. Only took it off for a little while, even chased after it in the water when it came off.
The perfect end to a perfect day. The girls feel this is where they should be in 30 years, on the beach, Cocktail in hand and watching the sunset. I guess Mike and I will have to go golfing since they don't picture us in this scenario.
