Helicopters, BlowHoles and the Banzai

We started the yesterday off with a note under our door that said due to an unexpected problem with a piece of equipment on the roof, it was going to be replaced that day with use of a helicopter... It might be a bit noisy and don't go out on the deck. Well, it was pretty awesome, but the noise was a bit loud. The whole area around our hotel found it was free entertainment.
We drove up the east shore to the north shore. Beautiful, Beautiful. Got out of the car quite a bit to take pics... Spent a lot of time at the blowhole... was windy, windy..... Drove on to the Banzai Pipeline, well, not on to it, but next to it.... More parasurfers then surfers.... big waves and windy again...
Today we went walking (just Jer and I) and just enjoyed the air and warmth. Even saw a whale breech at one point out on the water. Came back home, had a latte and now I'm watching the surfers outside and just being quiet..... Gonna go shower.... today, we take H & D to the Dole Plantation then.... off to the AlaMoana Mall.....WooHoo!
