Day 7 + 8: Parents Away

On Thursday morning my parents left for Maui, LinZ and Ashley drove them out to the airport at about 7 and I stayed home. Eventually, they returned to the condo and we spent most of the day relaxing. All in all it as a pretty uneventful day, with the exception of when Ashley called me down to the beach (she called LinZ too, but he was sleeping) to see some Sea Turtles that were on the beach. There were three in total, a relatively young one, an older one and one that looked like it had some sort of tumor on the side of it’s face and on both eyes (Poor, sick turtle). Some time after that we went and bought some groceries and grabbed a Shave Ice. Later still we went and ate at a crappy Mexican restaurant (not the one we went to on our first morning here). After getting back we watched Ladder 49 (A lot better then I thought it was going to be) and then the other two went to bed. I eventually turned in around two (I got a bed for once, huzzah!).

This morning I slept in, for once. We got up and hung around until around 1pm, then headed to Diamond Head. Diamond Head is a huge, ancient crater full of trees and other scenery. It was also, apparently, used by the military at some point. It took us about an hour to climb up it and back down again. It was a lot of fun. After that we stopped at a restaurant to grab a snack and then went to pick up my parents from the airport. They had a great time in Maui. Also, my mom (okay both of them) got me a vintage Alice Cooper T-Shirt! After returning to the condo we hung around for about an hour and I managed to finish Bone (1,300 pages of comic in two days… not bad). It was a really good read, I recommend it to anyone who likes Comic Fantasy, it was a pretty Epic story. We then headed out to Banzai Sushi Bar and got some, you guessed it, sushi! I had some California Rolls and Philadelphia Rolls. They were really bloody good (though on a side note I think I’ll pass on the Philadelphia Rolls next time. It’s weird eating sushi with cream cheese in it.) After that we came back home, stopping to get a bottle of Coke (to mix with rum, AHAHAHAHAHA!). Now we’re going down to the beach to take some pictures apparently.
