Meet my little friend


Here is Spike. He is a small lizard that has moved into our home. I have no idea where he is at the moment, he is very afraid of us...which makes me wonder why he decided to stay in here instead of leaving, and that is why this picture is so crappy hehe. Alas, its an adventure sometimes cause you never know when he is gunna show up. Its better then seeing spiders or other creepy crawly things.

Sunsets are...





Amazing! duh. haha

So, tonight while Harold and I left our humble abode to go get some yummy tacos down the street we saw a beautiful sunset from our front porch about to happen ....btw, when the sun starts to set here, you have like 5 minutes to catch it because it happens quick! ...back to the story... we ran back into the apartment and grabbed the camera, ran across the street and attempted to grab the sunset to send to you. :)
P.S. Harold is not stoned, he had just lost his contact in his eye. hehe
The End... Love the Pacheco's

Honolua Bay





Later on after surfing we went snorkeling at Honolua Bay. It is a really big snorkle spot here and very pretty. After parking, you have to walk through this mini jungle to get to the shore. It was awesome, there is giant trees all covered in green leaves and bushes everywhere. It was amazing. The pictures don't really do it justice since everything is so big, and it goes on for awhile around the shoreline.


check it out!

Harold climbed the this big tree by using all these branches that come down from the top of tree and go down to the root, but they look like rope. Later when he got out of the tree he had to be like tarzan and use the rope to swing out of the tree. It was funny. He loved it.

Surfing!

Yesterday, the 13th, We went surfing! We got lessons from Royal Hawaiian Surfing Academy, they were really good. Our instructors name was Dan, he was a little crazy, total surfer dude. haha. He was really good though.

At first, I (Marissa) was nervous, I wasn't sure if I was going to do so well, but once I got out there I did pretty well. :) Harold was Very excited to go out and surf. He didn't like the waiting in between turns part, he wanted to keep going back out as soon as he'd surfed one, the instructor said to me jokingly "your man is gunna wear himself out, he's like a hamster in a wheel going in circles." haha it made me laugh. But, even after our two hour lesson, Harold still wanted to go surfing for the rest of the day. hehe, but instead we came home and took a nap! hahaha


Here are some pictures of our day!
p.s. The guy in the red and black shirt in the last picture is our instructor Dan.
