Today we went snorkeling at Kahe Point Beach aka Electric beach. Kahe Point is nicknamed, Electric Beach because of the electric power plant located nearby. The electric plant outflows clean warm water through two giant cooling pipes offshore. At the openings of these pipes the water temperature is several degrees warmer than the surrounding ocean. The warm water attracts scores of sea life. I have been afraid of snorkeling ever sense I got bit by a jellyfish lol. Normally I do not swim out very far but today I decided to suck it up and enjoy the day.
We both slathered on sun screen and we both ended up looking something like this lol. Eric had an actual hand print on his shoulder. Guess next time we will be more strategic about it. I stayed in the shade and still ended up with some burns. The sun was deff out today!
After we went snorkeling we went to Outback Steakhouse. YUMM I had a steak and some broccoli. Audrey thought it was delicious... she told me so ;) Also this morning my parents went up to the hospital where Eric's uncle is. My mom brought her Ipad so we could Skype them for first time sense being there. It was nice to see them especially after all that has happened to them and I am thankful I have such great parents to even offer driving an hour to do it! Eric and I have been watching all the Bourne movies to refresh on them so we can go see the newest one. It has been a great
weekend! I am glad I got out and enjoyed the day with my husband! Now it is time to lay down and cuddle and find something to watch on netflix!
~Our memories of the ocean will linger on, long after our footprints in the sand are gone~
