Last Night

I'm just going to do a brief recap of what we did on Friday in Hawaii. We went snorkeling. We saw some cool fishes, turtles, an eel, and a really ugly flounder fish. We booked the night dive with the Manta rays, and it was the coolest thing ever. To have these huge manta rays swim literally inches from your body is pretty darn freaky and cool. I did freak out when I first put my face in the water and the manta ray comes up by my flashlight. I wasn't prepared for that. We were out in the water for a long time and I took pictures but my camera wasn't working. Manta rays don't have stingers so no need to be scared. I started to get sick that night and I was just cold after getting out of the water. We went in the hot tub after we got back from the dive so that we could warm up and the darn thing was cold. The best part was it started to rain and it was raining hard. So getting warmed up was out of the picture. We went to bed really late that night and we woke up late on Saturday. Our flight didn't leave until 8:15 p.m. and we had to check out at 11 a.m. so we had tonz of time to kill. We went boogie boarding one last time and that's when I got my little injury. It really didn't hurt too bad but it looked like road rash. After we were all done we went back to the condo, showered, packed and went over the place to make sure we got everything. We ate lunch and shop for last minute gifts. It was very muggy that day so Brandon wasn't to thrilled to be walking around in the humid air. We had so much time that we went to see 17 again. We ate dinner and headed to the airport. I was so tired but I didn't want to fall asleep on this flight because we had to fly to Honolulu at that's only a 30-40 minute flight. We had a little layover in Honolulu and then we were off to Phoenix. We all took a sleeping aid pill and I didn't get the best sleep on that 6 hour flight. I felt like I had my eyes closed and I wasn't sleeping. I slept really good from Phoenix to Utah though. We were really happy to see the kids and Brock's reaction when he saw me was nothing he wanted Brandon. We had such a fun time in Hawaii and we did such fun things. It was so relaxing and the weather was perfect! Brandon wants to go again next year but it just all depends on certain things. I wouldn't mind going again though.
