Headline: Man Saves Bee. The bumblebees are enormous here, like hummingbirds without the beak. But, from our balcony,soft-hearted Doug saw one struggling in the pool and he risked life & limb, not to mention possible anaphylactic (sp?) reaction , by rescuing it.
This morning, we (Doug, Cam & I) got up early and took a cab to the trail head and hiked up to Diamond Head. Phew! 220 steps plus long, steep trail in heat. But worth the view. A fellow hiker said she admired me for doing the hike. I wondered why she singled me out as worthy of admiration and now realize that it was because of .my Nordic Poles (non-existent in Hawaii). Disabled again!
Doug and I grabbed a quick bite at Subway and carried on, by bus, to Hanauma Bay to snorkel and spot the amazing, glorious assortment of tropical fish. This is a huge amount of fun and worth the long ride and rude bus driver. We saw parrot-fish, tang and many more that memory does not serve. Like being in Finding Nemo.
I like Doug's Hawaiian shirt. Have you bought yourself the matching dress?
ReplyDeleteWhere's your hat?
Yeah! You found your way into the blog. I am actually wearing a hat, but the wind is so strong that it keeps blowing off. I am NOT going to spring for a new one since I will be home in a couple of days
