Father's and Son's Campout

Ho'omaluhia Botanical Garden in Kaneohe

Hiding so well in this very cool tree is my very sneaky Daniel!
Daniel and James posing with the very cool sticks by our fun camping tent!

If there is something to swing on or climb on count Daniel in!

Daniel really wanted to pose with the avacado hanging from the tree!

This is a group of some of the boys from our ward who went
on an afternoon hike/fishing trip together!

This fish doesn't look real, but it was!
James caught 4 fish while at the pond. 3 orange ones (Red Devil fish) and a brown one.
He was so excited! He called me at home to tell me all about it!
James fishing, while Daniel ?
Here is the small brown fish James caught. A very kind old German man came to rescue their group from a day with no fish. He kindly shared his hot dog buns for bait and away they went. After some coaching from the nice old man it was smooth fishing!
4 for James, 0 for Daniel. Daniel just couldn't hold still long enough to catch anything!

James' eyes crack me up on this one.... poor fish.
They let them all go back into the lovely pond, that somehow Sterling didn't get a picture of!

Here is yet another fish.. maybe the same 3 times.. who knows! Pretty impressive!

For some reason Blogger is having a hard time uploading pictures today.. I have several more pictures that I wanted to post, but it wasn't working right.. but I think you got the idea!

Wow! That looks like a ton of fun! How did the fish taste? Or was it catch and release! Those fish do look fake! Like they are made out of jello! LOL! I'm glad you guys are having a goo time in Hawaii. Maybe we will come visit!!

Wow the last fish has totally big lips...cool. Looks like something you'd see hanging up at a beach party or something. Did you ever figure out what Daniel was doing while James was fishing? Looks like lots of fun!
