Beautiful Hawaii

Hawaii really wouldn't be the same without its amazing sunsets. I enjoy taking a break from the daily grind (yes, work does take place here in the islands) to enjoy a nice sunset on the beach. This photo to the left is the famous Sunset beach. The surf was actually quite big the day I took this, even though it looks flat here. There was some tourist lady who tried to go out with her boogie board. A big wave came and she put her board out straight in front of her to "stop" the wave. Instead, the wave hit the board straight into her face, knocked her over, and then the wave kinda tumbled her around a bit. It was really sad, but I found myself laughing hysterically. Wouldn't you? She was shaken up but fine.


This is Sharks Cove. The surf was quite high this night, and when the wave hit the reef...WOW! Sadly, due to the fact that I was too concentrated on enjoying the moment, I didn't catch some of the biggest waves, but these were pretty good I thought. I did have the thought come to my mind (as opposed to the times when I have a thought come to my index finger): "What happens to all the fish in Sharks Cove when the waves are huge like that? Do they get smashed into the rocks and die? If anyone knows the answer, I'd like to know!
