Oahu in July, Part Deux

Diamond Head... revisited
I've been up here twice now, which is weird after seeing this high climb











Yes, I made the boy climb too






The view from the top































Believe it or not, the "45 minute aerobic hike" to Makapuu Lighthouse was his idea... RIGHT AFTER we hiked Diamond Head, although he doesn't look too happy here









Fabulous view






















But the first step is a lulu

















Believe it or not, I still have acrophobia

Oahu in July

Our trip to Waikiki and the North Shore got off to an exciting start, as you can tell by this non-stop thrill ride to the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet

Next, I drug the boy to the zoo

Where he got in a stare-off with another primate

Guess who lost?

This rhino picture was taken just before the infamous "pee pit" incident... 

My favorite animal in the zoo on the right... Bobbles the "special" meerkat











Mr. Chimp, uh, you have a little broccoli stuck in your teeth

 Ooh... what's that?














That petting zoo pony is making me drool 

If that elephant puts his tail on his bum... RUN!

So grateful that my three children are healthy and alive...
