Carol (?) - Jan 4, 2010

Rachel and I woke up about 6 30. We both like getting an
earlier start to the day. We wouldn't want to waste one
minute while we are in Hawaii. After we were finished
getting dressed we headed down for breakfast. since half the
group was going surfing some of us decided to go to the
North Shore. The North shore is known its wicked waves for
the pro surfers, so why any of us wanted to venture that far
I have no idea. So we took the bus there a local told us to
take the 55 bus so we could see the island. If we wasn't
able to I don't know how I would made it since the trip was
2 hours long. We finally made it, but the waves were to
dangerous for us to get in so we laid on the beach for a
while. after we got back we meet up with others and we went
to Senor Frog for dinner.

The North Shore is something everyone in Hawaii talks about. Most people want to make an effort to get there at one point or another while in Hawaii. Instead of going to where the pro surfers catch waves, I went with the surfing group to Diamond Head beach for our group lesson. I thought for beginners our instructors would place us in a more calm area with less coral but NO! They got right to business and threw us in rough water with big waves. I personally only got up twice but some of the other girls were really good and got up a lot. We now know why most Hawaiians who surf are in shape; surfing is an intense workout! After a couple hours of surfing, went back to the hotel and most of us went straight to the beach. We will never experience any beach like Waikiki so we get the most out of it while we’re here.
