Vacation Saturday

On Saturday I was invited by Annie and Eric for a vacation day. We went to Northshore (other side of the island) and had lunch, went to see turtles, and went to the Dole Plantation.

It was so much fun. Except I got sick on the way to Northshore, about a 45 minute drive, and had to jump out of the car and go to the bathroom right away to toss my cookies. It was not good at all. I hardly ate lunch since I was still feeling a bit nauseous. But the day must continue even though things like that happen. I don't know if it is from being pregnant or the fact that I've been ill off and on for the past couple of weeks. I haven't had any morning sickness or anything like that the entire time I've been pregnant. Anyway, on with our day....

They took me to this beach I've never been to. They film Lost there. But the reason we went was to see the turtles. I was able to get close to one and take a picture. Andy said I looked scared and I was! Those turtles are huge and what if it bit me!

Last we went to the Dole Plantation. I had never been. Andy asked if I wanted to go when I was here the first time...but I did not want to go there. It didn't sound very exciting at all. But they sure did have some yummy treats. Annie suggested the chocolate covered pineapple. That was delicous. The pineapple float (pineapple ice cream w/pineapple juice), not so delicous. Eric suggested that. I also got a banana smoothie the was quite yummy. I got that right away. After the beach, I needed something refreshing!

It was a wonderful day with the Sirkins. It is nice that we live in a place where we can have a vacation day.
