Sunken on the Sand Bar

Out at Kaneohe Bay there is a sunken island which creates a large sandbar. Boats dock here and people do all kinds of crazy things out here. When it is low tide in the morning the sand bar is no longer under water and will sometimes completely dry up. At low tide people have brought out barbecues and grilled in the sand and live bands have played. At midday when the island is sunk we have seen professional model shoots, volleyball nets set up for water volleyball, fishing, jet skis, dogs swimming, kayaking, and a whole host of other stuff. I even was baptized out there.



When guests come to town we rent a boat out at K-Bay and hang out at the sand bar. Then we head to Bellows AFB beach for boogie boarding.This is the whole gang minus Hubby, me, and Son2. We are still sitting on the boat. Marty and Son1 are hanging on to a life jacket above the anchor.


I have gotten smarter with 2 kids. I plunk a beach chair down and enjoy the sand bar while holding Son2. Hubby is about to give a shaka to the camera.




Since it is relatively shallow Son1 isn't too nervous about using a snorkel mask like he sometimes can be where the water is rough. Hubby is getting ready to toss a football to his cousins.

Son2 was a little waterlogged after being in the water over an hour. He got out and loved on Marty on the boat.

But Son1 wasn't too keen on being left out. So Marty ended up with a Farmer sandwich.



After we returned the boat we headed out to Bellows AFB. The bigger guys all boogie boarded.

So this isn't the clearest picture but it made me laugh. Son1 is pretending he is walking Troy on a leash.

After a good amount of getting pounded by waves we headed home.
