Electric Beach and Waikiki

Electric Beach is on the west side of Oahu across the street from a power plant. The plant sends hot water out through huge pipes under the ocean. As a result, the water is alot warmer which attracts lots and lots of tropical fish.

In a devestating turn of events, Kenz had to work and didn't get to come. Me, MM, Pocahontas, Mustapha, Heath, Matt, Nate, Cowdrey, and some other people snorkeled and played in the ocean. Some of us played football. Some of us read. Some of us laid out and listened to music. And one of us wore inappropriately short, tight green euro trunks.


It was a beautiful day.

After the beach, we went to Waikiki because Mustapha and Heath had never been. We looked beachy and unattractive but it was so much fun. We went to one of my favorite restuarants, The Cheesecake Factory.

After dinner, we went to Wal-Mart. When you live in Hawaii without a car, going to Wal-Mart is a coveted event. Infrequent visits mean that you have a long shopping list when you actually get to go. We had a full car and by the time we had made all our purchases and loaded them in the car, the car was full. Poor Matt was buried in the back with all of our stuff. But he was a trooper.

On the way home, we went to Laniakea beach to visit the sea turtles.
