Megan's Visit
Nola and Megan - she is so happy to see her other mom
My first Luau at The Royal
Sunset on Sunset Beach at North Shore
Nola getting buried - she loves the sand
Rachel and Nola lying out - this is what we do when we rest on the beach after a rough day of chasing sticks and swimming
Nola swimming again - Ford is a good teacher
Nola swimming on her own!
Ford and Nola - he is trying to get her to swim on her own
Megan and me on the first night - the best Mexican food rest in town. Obviously doesnt compare to anything back home, but it will have to suffice for now
Finally Megan came out to see me. Actually I dont think she really came to see me so much as she came to visit Nola. But either way, we both loved having her out here. The first weekend she was here Ford and his roommate came out too. We went out on Friday to the best Mexican restaurant on the island. Im sure Megan didnt enjoy it nearly as much as Ford and I did since she has been having good Mexican food all along. The highlight of the weekend was Sunday. We were headed to North Shore for the day. Instead of getting there in the normal 45 minutes it takes, I took a wrong turn and we ended up on the west side of the island which is where all the homeless people live. I dont know how i missed the turn since I go there at least twice a month, but it did give Ford, Jeff and me a chance to have our first road trip since being out there. All in all the trip took 3.5 hours. It did allow Megan to see some of the nicest beaches on the island. Once we got to Sunset beach we had a good time and Nola learned to swim with our help - she finally got in the water by herself. It is pretty scary for her since she has to jump over the waves. We also watched the sunset, which wasnt too bad. It looked like it was going to be a great sunset until just before the sun went down the clouds came out and blocked everything. I think this was one of Megan's best sunday nights in a long time - although I dont know how a sunday spent at little woodrows could top this.
Monday night we went to a luau - my first and megan's second. It was fun - highlights were the kalua pig we ate and the hottest hawaiian i have seen since being here. I dont know that either one of us watched any of the show since we were trying to make eye contact with him the whole time. I am going to find out who this mystery dancer is (yes he was one of the dancers in the show) and make wedding plans.
Tuesday we pretty much bummed around. Shopped and sat on the beach. I tried to get Megan to come out surfing with me but she passed. Wednesday and Thursday I worked, and i am not sure what megan did. She didnt bring any guys home with her, so I am pretty sure she didnt do anything useful.
Before Megan came out here my mom gave her money to take us out to dinner, so that is what we did tonight. And tomorrow I am going to get megan on a surfboard. Hopefully I wont kill her and she wont see any sharks. if neither of those things happen, than it was a successful outing. Right now she and Nola are lying in bed saying their goodbyes. She leaves tomorrow night to head home and I head to kauai to kayak the na pali. Ford just informed me that we are camping on a nude beach, so Megan is suddenly trying to change her flight so she can come with us. It should be a really cool trip. We are landing on a beach that you can only get to by kayaks and I will be sure and post some pictures. Anyway, i have to go now and stop the kissing session that is going on between megan and nola in her bed. If you go to the link there are pictures of what has been going on each night. Apparently megan hasnt seen this much action in a long time.
