Oahu Trip 2012

Did some house & dog sitting with the family for 9 days in Kailua, Oahu.  Experienced the 5th tornado there in 50 years... pretty exciting to wake up to 60mph winds and power outages.

Surf was small most the time 3-5 feet, with one chest-high day in Haleiwa.  Had to surf Waikiki a few times to get away from the wind on the north and east shores... No complaints though, first time surfing without wetsuit & booties in almost 5 years.  Sounds like this trip may become an annual event. Bummer.

Here is a short GoPro video of the beautiful water and waves and my mediocre surfing...

And a couple family shots...

 A good combination.
