Oahu, Hawaii - Diamond Head etc

On Friday, November 27th we decided to take a drive and see some sites, the first one being Diamond Head State Monument. We drove up as far as we could go and then hiked up the trail for awhile. Miles carried Cole on the way up and then a bunch of them decided to go a bit further, while I started hiking back down with Cole... no one got all the way to the top (due to lack of time) but they got pretty close and the kids were amazing and kept wanting to press on! Way to be troopers :)

On our way...

Cole hitching a ride with daddy - a very hot day too!

It was paved for part of the way and then turned to rugged gravel terrain

Miles' younger bro

My view from Diamond Head - looking over Waikiki Beach

... getting closer to the top!

The gang (minus Murray who took the picture)

This was on the H3 and must be the longest tunnel I've ever been through!

A blowhole - the water would come in a certain way & up it sprayed...
