We were so lucky to have Grandma and Grandpa Turner out for a visit. We were also lucky enough that Zac could take the whole week off while they were here. Unfortunately they managed to bring some rainy weather with them from Washington - not that we were sad about it but I always feel bad when people come to visit and the sun doesn't shine. Last October while my family were here Zac was certified to pilot a pontoon boat on Kaneohe Bay so we took the Turner Grandparents out for a ride. We all enjoyed ourselves despite the rainy windy weather. It is always so much fun to stand on a sand bar in the middle of the bay. It's somewhat surreal.
I think Grandpa just had fun in the water!Buddy did get a bit cold and as you can see he spent most of the time cuddled with Grandma. How did she get out of having her picture taken?
While here we also went to the PCC (short for Polynesian Cultural Center). This time was so much more fun. The kids were a bit older and the weather not quite so hot as the last time. Zac and I realized this was probably our last "Hawaiian" experience before we leave the island.
Because this activity involved a stick, Andrew loved it. They each had to see how far they could throw it. I know you are all thinking, how easy. But really quite hard. Don't you also love the look on Grandpa's face. He was such a fierce warrior!
Sweet Anne watching the Hula girls. All day long she asked, "When are we going to see the hula girls?" She loved the Horizons show that night.
Out of the whole day we really enjoyed two things. The first being the IMAX film Coral Reef we watched and then when the kids got to go fishing. They could have stayed their all day.
