sailing

little known fact: i'm scared of water.

mostly the deep, naturally occurring kind. eg. the pacific ocean.

or bear lake.

lake powell.

the mississippi river...

ok, so basically anything but a swimming pool.

but here's the thing, we turned 5. our marriage, i mean. and i deemed myself as the 5th anniversary party planner.

so we spent a weekend in waikiki!

day 1: high-speed catamaran sail around diamond head.

it was so intensely, crazy fun!! we sat right up front, feet dangling off the edge, hanging on to the ropes white-knuckled for dear life. (okay, so maybe that was just me.) and the guy next to me, vacationing from washington state, had so much fake tanner on that i could smell the brown washing off of him with each mountainous splash of ocean waves.

that's how awesome it was.
