Hawaii - Day 6

We got up early and headed to Kapaa to rent bikes and ride along the beach.  It was a perfect morning for it and we had a blast!  The view along the beach was amazing.  We rode on a trail for about 3 miles and turned back when the trail ended.
 We stopped a couple times along the trail to take pictures and also do some whale watching.  January is whale season and we were able to see a bunch of whales jumping out in the distance.  It was very cool.
Stopped at Tiki Tacos (mom's choice again) for lunch after our bike ride.  
 After lunch we drove down to the beach in Poipu.  Started out at Shipwreck Beach and ended up at the Grassy Beach to snorkel.  Josh and I set up our hammocks to rest and relax.
 While we were at the Grassy Beach we saw a couple get married in the water.  And not just on the beach or standing in the water, literally underwater.  She had her white dress on and he had his slacks and shirt.  They all had their snorkel gear on including the priest who married them and they said their vows under water.  It was very interesting and we had fun watching.
We all had snorkel gear and had a great time snorkeling and seeing all the underwater wild life.  This was the one thing mom really wanted to do so she was in heaven!
 We saw so many beautiful flowers while we were there and this is just a sample of some of them.  Gorgeous.  
 We were all tired after our day of biking and beaching, so we went back to the condo and ate and lounged around for the rest of the night.  Such a fun trip so far!
