Exploring Kona - Day 1




We splurged a little on our condo in Kona. We figured it was only for a couple days and our first introduction to Hawaii.  The view was absolutely amazing from the balcony. Every morning, we watched surfers as we ate our breakfast. And, I love the sound of the waves as I sleep.

Our first stop was Kahalu'u Beach Park. The snorkeling here was awesome. You could see the fish even without a snorkel. We even saw a few turtles. It was very cool to swim with one of the turtles. They are so graceful. Dave forced Charlie to use the full face snorkel to see the fish. He was able to do it no problem and liked seeing the fish, but he is not interested in doing it again.  : )





Next, we headed to Magic Sands Beach to check out the big waves we saw as we drove by. Boy, were these big waves. The waves were crashing very close to the shore, so it seemed very dangerous.  But, the boys loved it. They caught some good waves.  Charlie had a great time jumping the waves. I think we could have just come here over and over and the boys would have been happy,
