Diamond Head


We finally did it, talk about waiting till the end of block leave, but we finished our list of things we had planned to do.


Thursday we head down to Honolulu to take on the walk of Diamond Head and had the best time. Ours friends Jamie & Anthony joined us as well as Flat Stanley. (their cousins school project, he had to visit different places and send a report back home with pictures talking about how his trip was.)

From the start of the trail to the summit of Diamond Head Crater was 0.8 miles one way and a 560 foot climb. We Had such a great time walking up, however I think it was one of the hottest days since i have been here in Hawaii. The views on the way up were amazing and just got better and better the further up we got. Once we reached the observation station you could see all across the downtown area of Oahu and it was just beautiful. Definitely worth the walk. Not to mention of course a history lesson from My Love as always, but I like learning more about the history of the Island and the Army and what not....ok ok to a point. hee hee.
We had a great day and ended out hike with lunch at Chili's yum yum!!!!

So that's who flat stanley is...such a cute idea!! I can't wait for Allen to get more time off so we can hike Diamond Head since he's never done it.
