Mom and Dad Gamache Visit Hawaii

My parents came to visit us in March. It was really fun to have them here, and show them around. While they were here, they also visited Maui and the Haggai Institute where they might volunteer for a few months next year.
Thanks for coming to visit!

Swimming at Halona Bay. Mom was in the water every chance she got, while this was the first time that we coaxed dad into the "cold" waters.

We visited a couple of botanical gardens. Mom was amazed with the giant pods!

On our 6 month anniversary, mom and dad took us out for dinner in Waikiki.

Mom and Dad visited Juaneva, a friend from Quadra who now lives on Maui.

Celebrating Prince Kuhio Day on the Sand Bar

Prince Kuhio Day is a state holiday here in Hawaii. So, since as Mark had just gotten his boaters license, Mark and Ari invited a few friends to spend the day boating around Kaneohe Bay, hanging out at the sandbar, and eating a fabulous breakfast on the boat. Unfortunately, Bryon had to miss out since he was working all day.

It's a turtle!
