Submarines, Dolphins, and Farms, Oh My!

We have been all over the place this week.  The box jellyfish come in 10 days after a full moon so we stay out of the water for a few days.  We took the kids to ride the submarine.  This was a HUGE hit.  The loved the boat ride out to the submarine, the loved seeing the fish, a turtle, dolphins, a shark, and an eel.   We went to Sea Life Park to swim with the dolphins.  The kids loved it.  Eli loves anything to do with animals and Lucas really likes to learn about each animal.  Lucas always participates in the shows.  Like when they ask a question, everyone just sits there.  But not Lucas, he always speaks up and is the first to raise his hand!
We went to the mac nut farm over in Kaneohe.  This was so much fun.  We did the tour which was hilarious and informative.  We will do this every time we com.  We saw how the Hawaiians made fire and opened and used all parts of the coconut.  The even did a fire dance for us.  Did I mention they were hilarious?  Well, they were.  Definitely a do not miss!

Mesmerized by all the fish!

Lucas loves to shoot the bow and arrow.  We stopped off for some target practice on the way to swim with the dolphins.

The boys got to feed the turtles lettuce and broccoli.
Holding hands while watching the show...melt my heart!
