Beach Time

The first couple days in Hawaii, Finley played on the beach by our hotel.  We built sandcastles and did some kayaking.  Finley was much more brave in the sand here than she was in Nevis last year.  Yesterday we visited the beach at Kikaua Point.  Clifton did some snorkeling while Finley and I played in the water and the sand. The best thing about beaches in Hawaii is that they are all public. Even in the fanciest of resorts, there is still access to the beach. This means you aren't tied to your hotel and you can really explore. I think we found our perfect beach today at Mauna Kea, pictures to come of that soon. Finley has really been enjoying the ocean this trip.  She has also really loved swimming in the pool (without noodles!)  She is finally ready to show off her swimming skills, it has been amazing to watch her gain the confidence to swim.
