Hawaii!

I was lucky enough to be sent out to Hawaii of all places for some training. For once, the military did something right I guess. Here are a few shots from my travels in Hawaii on my time off. 

Blake waiting patiently for a burrito big enough for Andre the Giant....

A palm tree on Waikiki beach!

A solo surfer paddles by Diamond Head, near Waikiki.

One of the members of our group who had way too much fun the night before.... He spent most of the day in this position while the rest of us surfed.

A crab. (Just one.)

A local tearing it up on a long board. 



As you can tell by the 7 or 8 surfers on this short stretch of wave, Hawaii can be a crowded place to surf. 

Me on the surf spot. 

Honalulu in the background, palm trees and surfers in the foreground. 

The beach where we spent literally all day. It was a hard day.

  3. Nice pictures Pauly! Hope you have a great time in Hawaii. I'm almost tempted to join the navy myself just to see the world (heavy emphasis on ALMOST). Miss you.
    love,
