Wiamea beach day 3

This was at the Beach of Wiamea. It was really salty you could float very easily. There was some really cool cliff jumping going on as well. People were doing flips and everything. We some cool sea turtles in the water. I don't know how to explain it, but we saw this band of fish that would jump out of the water all together and they would do it in a cool way like they were skimming the surface. I wish I would have been faster with the camera.



We then went to the Wiamea falls. the water was completely tried up. Apparently they didn't have much rain this season. So it's not falling very well, or at all. So, we then went to the Polynesian Cultural center (PCC) to get our tickets, and then went to this really cool look out point the looks over the whole coast of Wiamea beach. We sat there and watched the sunset. It was really cool, as you get up there they have a huge area where they would use lava rock to build areas to do sacrifices for the Gods. It was pretty cool. there was also a little area that if someone died that you come and put a little remembrance thing and food. Didn't get a picture of that, thought it was to cruel of me to take a picture.






Sunsent from Hawaii! Hoping to get better ones before we leave.



This is the beach that we were on earlier today. Just a view from the look out point. I thougth it was simply amazing. If you notice it has a little pinincula sicking out and then to the right of it is a big rock pointing our from the beach. That is where they would do all the cliff jumping from.
