Tuesday 22 May

Well first of all Happy Birthday Dad!! Sorry we can't be with you today! We hope you had a great birthday and enjoy the day! We must also say happy birthday to our God child Mia. Happy Birthday Mia!!

This morning was awesome we slowly got up and had our breakfast... go the Shreadded Wheat... but first we had to drive into Hana to get some Milk as there are no facilities at our camp site, accept a long drop... gross.. So on the way to get milk we stopped at some great water falls to take some more pictures.


Today was a really lazy day and we spent the morning lounging around back at the Seven Sacred pools. I met up with a local called Shannon and he thought he'd take me on the best cliff jumps. Here's a clip of my first jump at the bottom pool.

From here we waded up the pools to the next pool where Shannon took me to the lower level jump, stopping on the way for a happy snap and a shower.


Then after this jump Shannon took me to the top of the two falls for the scarest and most death defying jump.

Of course with Di being pregnant no climbing was allowed so she was camera woman... After all this fun and excitement we went back for lunch (Pringles and banana snadwiches)and an afternoon nap on our lilos.

After a refreshing nap we headed on a hike which took us up to the Waikomi Falls. A magnificent water fall which was at least 200 metres tall.. Di and I took a swim and sat under the falls althought the water was really cold.


Then after another long day we had more dinner then it wasn't long before we were back to sleep... before Di woke up to the sounds of cows grazing next to our tent...

we weren't sure if it was a bull and our verandah area was open... for a little while we were worried the bull/cow would enter our tents verandah get freaked out then trample us.. but thanks to the security mechanism on our car we were able to lure him away from our tent.. and minxy was saved...
