Snorkeling, fun for the whole family... or not


I was convinced that if you lived in Hawaii you had to own snorkeling equipment.
 For my birthday (yes another present, I know I am spoiled!) D bought the whole family snorkeling gear and we set off to Sharks Cove. Yes the name sounds daunting I know, but there are no sharks there. Legend has it that a nice  mama shark used to live in one caves but is no longer there, thus the name.

We were all so excited. Our kids are all pretty decent swimmers so D went on a head with the two older boys leaving me with the two younger. As soon as they left I realized T was freaking out.. almost hyperventilating. You have to understand T is my most brave kid. He will jump from anywhere do anything. Meanwhile lil B was having difficulties with his mask and it was hard to stand because the waves were a bit choppey and coral was everywhere. I finally got D's attention to come back and take T. 
Then we had a wonderful wonderful time. ( I know, poor T!)
We saw the coolest fish ever!! I need an underwater camera for sure.
 I finally came out of my sea world experience to notice that D and T were on the shore. 
T apparently had had enough.
This is him(below) when I told him yesterday we were going to go again.. He was running and hiding from me. 
Apparently snorkeling is not his favorite thing to do.
But it sure is mine!
