Beach time in Hawaii

We had one and now have 2 favorite beaches in the Kona area. The first beach is a bit north of downtown and has super calm warm water for Oliver and is a beautiful setting. The other new favorite beach is right next to the marina and has great shade and large turtles hanging out in shallow waters. Here are a few pics from the beach:

Filling the moat



Lots of smiles at the beach



In the later 1/2 of our time in Kona - the James family joined us. Here is Kendall with a full smile on her face after some time in the water!



Love this picture...Oliver doing some stretching...or is he showing his muscles?



This makes me want to get back on the plane tomorrow and sit in the sand once again

See what I mean on how cool this beach is? Great sand, fun rocks, wonderful water, cool trees...here is O exploring the beach

Here is the family at our new found beach near the marina. They had this shade built and was a great place to set up camp for the morning.
