Yesterday, Friday, we met some friends at home in Mililani and drove across the island to Bellows Air Force Base. Bellows was a lot more fun this time than at Christmas… the waves were a lot bigger. I have to say that Bellows is my favorite beach spot on all of O’ahu. I’m no expert, but we’ve certainly been to most of the big beaches around here (between the last trip and this one).

We spent the entirety of the time between 11 and 4 on the beach, in the sun. I have a nice (and painful) pink tinge to all of my skin. I arrived in Hawai’i wearing my Indiana winter white and will leave with a nice, healthy tan (for me) – thanks to my time at Bellows. =)

After the beach, we got dinner and went home, stopping on the way to rent a movie.

    …wow! absolutely beautiful pics of bellows beach! I’ve been there several times, took pics, and they sure didn’t come out looking like that. The more I look, the more I realize how nice all your pictures are…

    Thanks! Last time we went to Bellows, I took quite a few pictures of the beach itself, but this time, I shot some of the trees – I love the way the ocean has eaten the sand from beneath the trees (and the strange shapes they’ve grown into because of it).

Ramblings. Musings. A way to keep in touch with my scattered far-and-wide family. Don’t take any of it personally – chances are, my world doesn’t revolve around you. =)
