Summer of Greatness Part 2

As much fun as Arches was, we weren't going to stop there. We have always wanted to do a big vacation before medical school because once we start school we won't have the money, time, and freedom. We through out a lot of ideas but ended up deciding on Hawaii with our friends, Garrett and Nicole Barber. To prepare for this trip, we watched the first season of Lost (we kept making Lost references throughout the whole experience. We decided that Mike was Jake, I was Kate, Garrett was Locke, and we never could get a good character for Nicole). Here are some of the photos from the trip. I can't post them all, so I will continue this post another day.

Here we are waiting at the airport. We had to wake up at 3 am UT time and didn't go to bed until 1:30 am UT time that night. We were so tired.

That first evening, we ate at "Da Kitchen" that served Hawaiian dishes. I had the salted pulled pork. Mike had the famous Loco Moco (we will make it for anyone will is very hungry and has a tough stomach). Garrett and Nicole ate the pork that was cooked in the leaves. It was all so cool.

We went on a guided boat tour to go snorkeling at the Molokini Crater. It had such colorful corral, however Nicole and Mike got a bit green in the face from the boat ride.

We spent a lot of our time on "our beach". It called it our beach because we went there almost everyday and there weren't many people there. We have so much fun on it.

These are the pictures of our epic sand castles. We spent 1 1/2 hours making them. I don't know if the picture does it justice, but they were huge!
