Maui & Oahu for Spring Break (Mar 2008)

On Sasha's 11th birthday we drove to Vegas to catch a direct flight to Oahu. We all had a wonderful time at different beaches each day. The three girls even took surfing lessons from the North Shore's most famous woman surfer and we swam in a cage being surrounded by sharks (see my cell phone blog for photos). After a week staying at Heather's on the North Shore, we flew to Maui for 3 days, where we really enjoyed seeing whales right out the back window of the cottage where we stayed.

Famous Lanikai Beach with the pyramid shaped islands.










The sand is so fine at Lanikai, I like making sand sculptures.

All of us posing.
