Ahalanui Warm Pond

The boys have Fall Break this week, so we have been busy! First off this week we went to the Ahalanui Warm Pond...Tom, Stella, and I have been there before, and the boys were anxious to go.
This geothermally heated warm pond (with fresh ocean water during high tides) is about 25 miles from our house.

There were a lot of tourists there...we heard from New Jersey, California, and Chicago to name a few.
Above and below Kyle is snorkeling. There are little fish that get washed in with the tide...and some eels, but we didn't see the eels.

It was a great day, and a fun way to start their Fall Break. Confused about Fall Break? Keep in mind their school started August 1st!

Tom says it was about 95F to 100+ in some spots. The water gets mixed with cooler ocean water. He says next time we'll bring a dial thermometer :)
