Day 5 and a half…

We woke up again and had eggs and bacon. Packed up the car with 2 surf boards from the place we’re staying at and drove up the street to a beach called Castles. When googling Castles Beach, you see a beach further south down by Kailua, which is about a half hour drive away. But these guys had directions to a beach that sounded good, so we made the trip.

Once there we found a beautiful beach that was entirely ours – not a single other person was on the beach. Partially because it’s a weekday and this isn’t a huge tourist area, but also because it’s raining and cloudy out. We tried to surf, but our own lack of skill combined with our tiny little boards foiled us. I couldn’t even stand up, and I think it was mostly because it was pretty thin and unstable for a newb like me. We had a great time anyway, swimming around in the water – much warmer despite it being miserable out. 🙂

We had lunch at North Shore Tacos, which we now highly recommend. The food was delicious and we’re thinking we might go back again…

Now we’re hanging out and getting ready for a wedding. In the rain. >.>
