Tiring day...

We drove up to the north shore of the island today, and took tons of pictures of the scenery. It was warmer and more humid than I expected it to be, and after a day of driving and exploring, I think we're all a bit exhausted. So, without further ado, a few pictures from today's collection:


A nene -- the state bird of Hawaii. We were actually really happy to finally see one of these -- every time we're in Hawaii, we inevitably run across a sign in a park somewhere about how the nene is a protected species, and we should be careful not to disturb them or run over them with our cars... but we've NEVER seen one anywhere. Until today...


Lighthouse on the north shore...


Waves hitting the cliffs near the lighthouse...



Hawaiian church...


Rick caught a great picture of this wave...


A picture I have entitled, "Lisa with windblown hair and cheap purple sunglasses." (One of those tiny little screws fell out of my nice pair of sunglasses, so I had to buy these at the store at the hotel...)


Sunset near the hotel...
