Day 35: Kailua, HI


Today I woke up at 4:45AM and I was ready to roll; the time change was rough on me. After a few hours, all of us were up and we eaded down to the beach. The conditions were not super (it was pretty windy), but the water felt great.

After a few hours at the beach, we all headed into town to get lunch. I got myself the Hawaiian plate lunch, which was good. I was seriously hungry; the three breakfasts I had earlier in the day had long since stopped fueling my insane metabolism.

Rebus had orgainized a boat trip to some snorkeling spots for anyone interested. It turns out 42 of us were interested, so we all headed out to the boat. We got a nice tour of a bay, snorkled a reef, walked on a huge sandbar and cruised. We had a great time and even spotted several sea turtles.

After the boat trip, the large group went different ways. Rebus and Nic took care of last minute details for their big day and our small group of friends went out for a decent mexican meal.

Since our days have been pretty ative we all went to bed fairly early. Tomorrow is the big day and we are all excited.

Jeff
