Hawaii

It was raining cats and dogs, but no lightning, so we went for it! Zip lines go really fast when they are wet...the longest was 850ft. at about 100 ft. off the ground. Check out [...]

This was the area where they filmed Jurrasic Park and Raiders of the Lost Ark. We found some slick downhill ruts, did some fishtailing. You know you're still a kid at heart if a mud [...]

This is the latest sports craze in Hawaii as of the last couple years. The equipment is a big 11ft long surfboard, about 50% larger than standard, plus a paddle. It takes a bit of [...]

This was SO fun...we actually "surfed" the waves on the way into shore, then paddled back out and did it again.
