Because of the high winds cancellation of most of our fun activities such as surfing and para-sailing we decided to load the kids up in the Mustang and take a drive around the island. This is what we encountered.
Collin and Sydney both decided that BYU-Hawaii was much better than BYU-Utah or for that matter BYU-Idaho.
Right next to BYU-Hawaii was the Temple. Although, we were in swimming suits we took a peak in the Temple grounds.
The highlight of the trip for Jay was seeing his long time friend, the Hawaiian Monk Seal. He was very disappointed not see one on dive in Kauai, but this made up for it. The Monk Seals are an endangered species and very rare, especially on Oahu. The seals just hang on the beach and sun themselves. They are very large and have great personalities. This was on the North Shore at Sunset Beach, and Jay didn't even want to stop because of all the people and congestion. But he was glad he did.
The last stop on our trip around the island was at the Dole Plantation. Although we didn't take any tours or go through the maze, the Dole gift shop was an hour long stop. They had a nice little market place where we picked up a couple of cool trinket and souvenirs.
