Oahu Part Eight

This was both the best day and the most challenging day of the trip. We went to Hanauma Bay in the morning to snorkel. Had a fast food lunch, then decided to drive around the southeast point of Oahu. Came upon this beach, Sandy Beach, and decided we had to go in. Mom and Dad posing in the first pic. Me in the 2nd. If you look closely you can see the rental car key in my right pocket. This was just before I went in the water. And promptly lost the key in the pounding surf because I was so excited to get in the water I left.....it........in my............pocket. As you can see from the 3rd photo the shorebreak was poundin, and I was in the water for about an hour, so by the time I realized I didn't have the key, it was buried under 10 feet of sand.......somewhere. I was instantly agitated cause we'd have to wait about 90 min for someone to bring a replacement key....until I realized we were stranded on one of the most beautiful and fun beaches in the world. 4th pic is actually a skimboarder doing some cool moves. 5th is Kalia. This was the best weather day of the trip. Air 82, water 78, and sunny all day.
