First kiteboarding lesson was today. Didn’t get in the water but just learned how to fly the kite… stayed on the beach and still had fun. Forgot to use sun block on other areas besides my face and got burned abit – bright red is not a good color for me.

My first sea day… something happened to the ship engine and we were out of power for a bit. Luckily, we were still in the Honolulu port. We usually leave at 6PM but for some reason just noticed that the ship wasn’t moving at midnight and found out the engine had to get fixed before we could leave.

Anyway, instead of spending Sunday in Hilo, we’re skipping it altogether and going straight to Maui, spending all day traveling there. Apparently, engine failure occurs quite frequently and we were lucky we were in port.

Had the chance to go on an excursion this morning. It was great. I had a friend to go with me which made it even more fun. It was called mudbugs and waterfall tour which was basically going mudding in little dune buggies then washing off in a waterfall. It was such a nice day out but we finished right in time since it started raining about a ½ hour after we completed our trip although that would have been even more fun.
