HAWAII DAY 8!

 Day 8:

The twins turned 17!!! no matter how big they are getting they are still and forever my babies! We took the boys to Ted's Bakery for the best breakfast for their birthday! The boys saved the best for last...they spent the day cage free shark diving! They take a boat ride out to the middle of the ocean and the sharks are used to the sound of the motor and that it means there will be food so they instantly start coming around. The boat puts a big stick of chum in the water and they put a rope in the water and they tell the swimmers if they yell get to the rope then you have to immediately get to the rope. While Jared was swimming head on towards a shark (a no-no) another shark started swimming up to the side of him and was about in an inch away from biting his arm, but the safety swimmer saved him and pushed the shark away! The sharks were about 10-12 feet long! I didn't want to swim with sharks because I don't like snorkeling so I spent the day at the beach on the Ritz Carlton again enjoying my umbrella, chair laying out, reading my John Stamos book, and my nachos from the bar! I snagged my last shave ice from Kula Shave Ice  and the boys wanted fancy drinks from the bar so I got them some fancy virgin "Lava Flow" drinks and some edamame to end their big day!
