Beach House and Wilua Falls

Headed out for some snorkeling at the Beach House at Poipo. It was spectacular. Saw all the fish you could imagine. Gus took bunches of pictures with the go pro, selfies with fish.

Next adventure, hike to Wilua waterfalls, on our way it down poured, not looking good for a dry hike.  The hike was not as hard as Sleeping Giant since I did not fall on this one. boots took a spill but survived. Gus decided to go in bare feet, that was really slippery, the main problem is that if you fall whatever you are wearing is stained red dirt for life.  So I decided to take off my shorts and go in my bathing suit. It was pretty rugged hiking, this time I had on my wet shoes and it was better than topsiders.

The falls and pool was beautiful, temperature was about the same as The Pool in Bay Finn, cold to the locals, but was fine for us. There was a rope swing to jump off into the pool. Gus and Kirk were successful, my jump I did not hold high enough, oops. The Mosquitos were out in mass so if you stayed near Haley you did just fine! she is the sweet blood. She stayed wrapped in a towel as much as possible.

Gus again had the gopro so we got loads of underwater pics!

Had a late start back to the taco place so we had mustgoes for dinner. The refig was full of leftovers so no one starved.

Christmas tree was up and decorated, gifts galore underneath it, so we are all set for Christmas.

One gift did not make it. Gus's smart phone, it has been a real challenge to get them here. But looks like Gus's phone will be chasing us across the country. Hopefully it will get home before we do.
