Valle playing the ham

Doc surveying his turf. Er, surf and turf?

Jesus is coming: look busy

|
I think Doc needs to loosen up
|
Very advanced maneuver: using your ankles as a sail for controlling direction. Kids, don't try this at home.
|
Great face, Liz
|
|
|
|
|
Had to include a vertigo shot
|
Look closely to the right of the stick shift. Ask Valle why he feels compelled to steal mustard from ritzy restaurants. Then again, it was Grey Poupon. But of course!
|
Egotistical sea turtle wants a head shot. He also has a screen play he'd like you to read.

Bottlenose dolphin who was jumping our wake

High Five! So grease monkey, but don't tell the 20 ton that

Lamp shade is missing because Doc was wearing it last night. Great party...

Local cuisine (not really)
|
My new best friend
|
Sure, it's beautiful, if that's your kind of thing...

Valle doing his best Shawshank
|
Three nonobvious tidbits. 1: Waterfall water is cold. 2: Comes down hard enough to strip flesh from bones. 3: Did I mention cold?
|
Someone left the shower on

Exploring a cave. Note to Rummy: no Taliban here
|
Liz. was. pissed.
|
I think someone's following me
|
|
|
|
|
Lots of good skipping stones
|
Black sand beaches are cool
|
Path through bamboo forest. Ask Liz about the bamboo bamboons
|
|
|
|
|
Path through lava rock
|
Chillin' with Liz
|
Serene
|
|
|
|
|
This lava rock is above the ocean. When the tide would come it, it would force air through the lava rock's small holes. Result: spooky dragon-like sounds
|
This place is called Seven Pools. This is two of them
|
A cool lava rock bridge crafted by the ocean

|
Delicate

Lone palm tree, insert desert island analogy here
|
WARNING: all these warning signs may cause panic
|
|
|
|
|
I didn't get the painting. I still don't
|
'Rock', but hopefully no 'roll'
|
Valle got this great shot
|
|
|
|
|
Locals will jump off the bridge above into the pools below. Wheelchair business is good
|
Mmm, fresh water
|
Typical one-lane bridge on the road to Hana
|
|
|
|
|
But other than that, welcome to the island!
|
I can tell when Liz gets drunk -- she gets all blurry

Doc attempts to eat body board. Sigh, it doesn't taste as good as it looks
|
|
|
|
|
I prefer foam on my Latte
|
Nice waves -- they'd kick you down the various levels. Go bronco!
|
Sigh. Another day in paradise
|
|
|
|
|
Sure, it looks nice from here, but did I mention there's like no internet access here?
|
Can't be all fun here...
|
Native flowers

|
Cool: Valle caught the bee in flight
|
OK, I admit it -- this shot was a set-up
|
But this one is absolutely genuine
|
|
|
|
|
Valle taking the "express" way down hill
|
That's the shadow of the mountain
|
You missed it, Liz just cartwheeled onto the moving bike. Ta-da! It was very impressive, especially with the helmet
|
|
|
|
|
Top of the morning, literally. Those are clouds
|
Very nice
|
Valle got up a little too early
|
|
|
|
|
This guy loved to sit on top of the plexiglass tunnel and freak out old ladies
|
Jellyfish. Now all I need are Peanutbutterfish and Sandwitchfish...

Me acting aggressively silly

Wavy octopus. While snorkeling, we actually saw an eel attack and rip off a tentacle off an octopus
