At the base of the trail there was a little yellow school bus selling shaved ice so we got some.
This is one of the tunnels that led to the top. We got there about a half hour before they closed the gates to the tunnel leading to the parking lot so we pretty much ran up it and then ran right back down it. The lady that ran the park turned the lights out on us just as we were coming down the spiral staircase from the top tier. It was kind of freaky cause there were spiders every where and the stairs did not allow much room per person to move. Luckily we had our cell phones to light the way...
Here is a picture of the view from the top. Diamond head used to be a small military base so there are alot of old 1950's era leftover pieces or equipment.
We hiked Diamond Head and wow it is so pretty. You look over the whole city. You can see how beautiful the ocean is. I have also been enjoying during the day while Spencer is at work going to the beach here close to our hotel. It is so awesome to lay out on my towel and listen to the waves hit the rocks. I love that sound, it is so relaxing. I am also reading Harry Potter for the first time and enjoying that too. Now I am just like a little puppy excited for my owner to get home from work. It is fun to be here with Spencer. I love him so much.

A beach and Harry Potter, what more can anyone want? Beautiful pictures. I'll bet you are having so much fun.
Are you at the Ala Moana beach? That was our very favorite one on the island. Hopefully we can take our kids there someday, they would love it.

Drink a pina colata (sp?) for me! love, Kendra
It is beautiful! My darling husband has promised me a trip to Hawaii some day. Your pictures are making me all the more anxious. I am glad you guys are having such a good time.
Yay! Reading HP!! Good for you. So, I love Diamond Head. I remember lots and lots of stairs, and also t-shirts that said "I survived Diamond Head" but NO keychains. ARgh.
