Aloha! Monday - Day Nine

This morning we got up early (John had a 7am conference call), and I took the kids down to Lagoon #1 for a fish feeding. Unfortunately, it takes too long to get 4 littles that far away, so we missed it. We'll try again tomorrow. Instead we stopped at Lagoon #2 for some snorkeling and saw many amazing fish on our own.
This is our little umbrella we parked under. So serene!!


Then, the PCC came to demonstrate some things:

Christian must take after his father and loved to bang on the drum. He maintained the beat for our dancing lesson.

The kids learned how to throw spears.

I even tried some Tahitian dance (that's the fast-moving hips one, not that I had fast moving hips yet).

My instructor - now she can dance! Amazing!! That's one great workout.

The girls learned how to make fish out of leaves. It was a lot of fun - and we didn't have to go all the way back to the North Shore to do it!

After another day of fun in the sun, we headed out to the mall to get a couple of last minute things and stopped for dinner at Farrells!! Did you even know they were still around? They were just like we remembered - the old fashioned straw hats, candy store in the front (only there was only one jar of jaw breakers), the big drum, sirens, etc. whenever anyone had a birthday. They even still have the "pig's trough". I can't say I have ever had dinner there before, in fact, I don't even know if they served dinner there when we were kids. All I remember was the ice cream and the fun. John and I had soup and salad, and we all shared ONE banana split - which I have to say was more than enough for our family of SIX - and it was only a single serving size! Geesh!
