As long as he doesnt ask you if he can catch a parrot and eat it you should be ok. LOL
Have a good time.

Pretty soon he will have a trap line set. parrots, geckos, mongoose, birds, and crabs. Could be some interesting meals this trip.

Talk about a trapline, tell Brandon that Fireman Ken will give him 10.00 for every bikini top he brings me, with a picture preremoval!

at four thirty the kids were awake
aunti mila wandered off to find beverages. she came back with coffee for herself and coconut hotchocolate for the rest of us.
OMG that coconut hotchocolate was amazing.
at eight am the driver came and got us and off the kids, charity and i went.

Met one of the captains, from the show deadliest catch. he was docked right beside the catamara went out on.
the scenery was beautiful. watching the whales even a momma with a baby was just incredible. it is enough to take your breath away.
then we went over to the turtle carwash area and did some snorkeling. the whole thing was amazing. turtles and fish everywhere.


we had both breakfast and lunch on the boat.
the drink of the day it called the Catatonic
1.5 oz of light rum
1.5 oz dark rum
1 splash of pina colada mix
some fresh orange or pineapple juice
dash of nutme
served on ice.


it was a nice treat
we all got sun.
kids are all out on the deck playing at the playground.

couple hours and we are off to go fishing.

You know Fishing mom any screen over 25spf is just a number . I useually get one good sunburn spring time and am tanned the remainder of the season. I hope your trips going well . Very excited to hear about the shark fishin trip.

Also don't pop your blisters go get a dozen or so tea bags brew it like regular let them cool and put on the blisters it takes the pain away . I learnt this from a few years ago when I was in osoyous fishin and the owner of the restraunt swore by it.

Go get some fresh potatoes(or cucumbers), slice thin and cover the blisters for 1/2 to 1 hour, will help. Have a good time with fishing!

nope
we have been playing with the fish in waikiki
just spent 4 hours in the water
he got close to some of the birds today, but only to chase them away from his lunch
him and some other kids were catching little crabs along the beach and finding shells.

Ken,

we tried to follow your advice. only problem was we got so darn excited we chased the birds at the peir.
we tried catching pigeons using our lunch, but realized we didnt want to share.

BUT
we did get parrots, or rather the parrots sat on us. big beautiful birds. pics to follow.

the pigeons are easy, when they land on the balcony of your room, toss some bread into the room then slam the patio doors shut when they go in after it, worked for me, it was awesome listening to the ex wife screaming and trying to hide from them, I had forgotten (:sHa_sarcasticlol:) that she was scared of birds :bad_boys_20:

Wayne no wonder she is an ex wife now.
we are having lots of fun.
Our mission is to catch some fish with our hands it seems.
we dont need pigeons in our condo. that would be bad bad bad
remember there is a baby with us on this trip.



Ken we went on the star of honolulu yesterday during the rain, but didnt see any whales. the kids enjoyed being out on the boat.
tomorrow morning we will be swimming with the sharks.

Kids are all at the beach with the aunties. so I better get my rump down to the beach, as I have our lunch.

I dont want to come back to alberta.
few more days in paradise.
