This week the kids have been surfing. For real, as Deidra would say. We made arrangements with the surf camp next door to give them some lessons, which they were very nice to do. Two of the instructors are girls from Australia and we let them use our wireless internet to keep tabs on their families, so they were glad to be able to do something for us in exchange.
Both kids were able to get up and ride in to shore several times but they are probably not ready for the North Shore of Hawaii just yet.
Next week they fly back to Texas and start school. This was only a two week visit, but we have all had a good time.
Is that your camera or is Deidra really that red? Dom is a bit red but not as much. Lot's of Aloe would be good.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe it's your monitor. :-) They have both gotten a lot of sun but have been wearing plenty of sunscreen.
ReplyDeleteThey look like professionals! Well at least better than I would! ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, has Dom grown up in the last year! He almost doesn't look like the same kid. They both look great on the waves. Sounds like fun. Were they tired?
ReplyDeleteSo when are we going to see pictures of Poppa/Nana out there on the boards?
Yeah, good question! When are we gong to see Poppa/Nana out there on the boards? With the trainers right next door I see little reason not to go for it!
ReplyDeleteI suppose Dianna could try it if she had an inkling, but I don't see any reason to take chances with an artificial disc in my back. Besides, the water is way to cold for me. Snorkeling in the Caribbean is much more to my liking.
ReplyDeleteI must have the same bad monitor at work that I do at home. I second the Caribbean.
ReplyDeleteHas nothing happened since August 14? There must be something that could be told, like a sea gull eating your potato chip, or a lost whale getting beached on your site.
ReplyDeleteMust be pretty quiet over there on the beach...
