Beautiful Hawaii

 It's been another wonderful week in Hawaii. We're diving almost everyday on wrecks, seawalls and through sea caves. The view below from below the waves is truly spectacular. Actually, the view of the volcanos, palm trees and knife edged mountains isn't half bad either.
Earlier this week we visited Pearl Harbor and toured both the USS Missouri (Mighty Mo) with her nine 16'' guns and 880ft hull. Wow, what a huge ship. We also explored the inside of USS Bowfin submarine, which was quite interesting. A few days ago we went on a muddy hike to a beautiful waterfall and went surfing again at Waikiki Beach.
Our good friends Matt and Sheila have been terrific hosts and great company over the past couple of weeks. I wish we had a few more weeks that we could stay here.
Tomorrow we're going diving again and on Sunday I'm going deep sea fishing with Sheila while Nadia and the girls go diving. Life is good.
Matt let me use his underwater camera when we've been diving so I've included a few pictures below.

Cheers, Rob
