Hawaii Part 3

We went on a trip to the Dole Plantation one day.

Noah was way more excited about the heavy equipment than the pineapples.

Sad boy can't see the tractor.

Yay! A pineapple harvester!

Koi Madness!!!

Pineapple sundae, of course!

After the pineapple plantation, we made our way out to a beach where there are a lot of sea turtles. We went snorkeling while we were there, but apparently took few pictures. Here's one up on the shore. The imperfection in the shell is the remains of a tracking device.

Hawaii Part 2

We went on a few hikes while we were there. This is on the North Shore.

 Having a blast on the drive to the other side of the island.

Noah calls this "rainbow face". No idea where that came from, but it's cute. I think he's trying to frown.

Horses randomly teathered along the trail.

A strangler plant of some sort that obviously strangled its victim to death.

But oh the views...

Beautiful hike, but unfortunately, the official end of the trial was along a main road. Seriously right on the shoulder. We opted to find a new way back along the water.

A beautiful sunset at the end of the day.

Hawaii Part 1

We started the trip with a ride to the airport in a fancy van. Noah was thrilled (although he doesn't look it in this picture).

 There's our plane!!

 Noah did great on the plane and we fully credit that to the fact that we brought his carseat on board. He stayed strapped in for the entire flight and even had a good nap.

 We also came supplied with books and toys that he hadn't seen before so they were extra entertaining.

Noah found his first Hawaiian fish at the hotel where we picked up our rental car. He kept waving and saying hi to them.

There were Rays there as well.

 Of course he had a blast swimming.

And playing with construction toys in the sand.

And visiting the big construction equipment that were working outside our resort.

More to come soon!

Video fun

It's rare that Noah lets us video him singing, but boy, he loves to sing!

ABCs until he turns into Curios George.

A Hawaiian style overly dramatic meltdown that is cured when he turns back into Curious George.
