Wow…what a day. So much to do….so much to blog about!
I would imagine you are probably wondering how I pulled this off. As long as your camera doesnt get wet, you are good. 🙂 We spent the morning catching some waves, this local girl was very nice to me, seemed like every time I paddled out there she was smiling at me. (It probably had something to so with the fact that she is my sister, Jennifer). I was surprised that no other surfers had cameras…whats wrong with these people?
I am beginning to realize that Mike is going to have a few good pictures by the time we are done. I wish I had my own personal photographer to follow me around.

Another incredible sunset….I never get tired of them here on Maui.
Luau Dancer….had a ton of pictures like this. All natural lighting, ISO 1600. 😀
Fire Knife Dancer, shutter speed = 1 second (this was hand held from about 50 feet) so I am very proud of it. 
Then we met up with my family again to watch Jordan run in one of his track meets.
It was a great, fun day. Hana and the Seven Sacred Pools tomorrow.
Michael, your family is beautiful and big, just like mine. Love the shot’s of the fire and the Luau girl and of course th sunset! How exactly you don’t get your camera wet when out in the middle of the ocean?
What a gorgeous family! I’m glad you were able to take a break and spend some time with them. Tell them all I said hello! Have fun.
