overlooks + blow holes
After snorkeling, Jason drove us around a little bit to check out some overlooks. One of the overlooks just happened to include a blow hole. I know. Crazy, right? I believe the one we saw was the Halona Blow Hole on the south shore. The water pushes so hard against the rocks that water rushes through a hole in the rock – but only on occasion. It’s not like a steady stream of water, as you can see in my pictures.

I don’t know how people got down to that beach, besides scaling the rocks. I wasn’t going down there, though.
Nor was I heading to that rock (look closely):
The blow hole – before:
A slight mist:
And a gush of water!
I just loved the color of the water:
The houses on the hill? That’s where rich people (think celebrities) live. Otherwise, people don’t really have yards in Honolulu.
The next set of photos will be our fine dining experience the same night of our sightseeing and snorkeling adventures.
