Hanauma Bay

Snorkeling was one of our favorite memories from our 2016 Hawaii trip, so we set out Wednesday to see the fishies. Stace and I needed to swap out our bug-infested rental car in Honolulu, so we dropped off the family at Hanauma Bay, which was heading that direction. It was a gorgeous beach!

And there were fish to be seen.

There also was an adorable Hawaiian monk seal sunning himself while napping. We were pretty lucky to see this sight! Thanks to Grandpa for the cute photo.

Stace and I got the car exchanged and then joined everyone at the beach. The conditions weren't ideal for snorkeling - it was windy and the sandy surface was churned up.

On our way back, we stopped at a cool blow hole, and also saw the beach where a famous scene in From Here to Eternity was filmed.
