Approximately $3.50 for three hours
The night before or at least two hours before diving
You can throw up in a regulator, but I prefer it.
I don't know.
It's.
Good morning, Good morning. Diving day number two. Going out into the ocean today. So we'll see how that goes. So let's get the day started.
It's.
The first site that we're planning to go to. Should see a lot of sea turtles both on the surface and underwater. And then the second site that we plan to go to, it's a bit more coral. So the first site's a bit more sandy. It's a series of a bunch of craters. Then the turtles like to kind of nest in, like not nest, rest underneath the craters. And then they'll come up for air every once in a while.
Ready? So I'm going to be.
Most good. Accidents happen on the surface, so always put air as you do bc. And then I want you guys to tow each other. So why don't you guys tie it first? Sir. And you're gonna take off your gear and put it back on. So you're gonna hold on to them. That way they don't go floating away. Hold right here and then turn around so you're on your back. And then you're gonna grab her tank right here. Okay? So put it back on. Guys. Do cram from the little tail. So cramped, movable, where you grab your fin and pull back. Good job. Then you can come over here. So you don't feel fine.
In the water too. In the water.
You can throw up in a regulator.
But I prefer Thursday of diving.
I'm out of glass.
The ocean success. Semi success for me. Full success for Chandler. She completed both of her dives. I only completed one because after the first I got seasick and puked everywhere. So pro tip, take your nausea medication the night before or at least and two hours before and two hours before and get little wrist things, I guess, that help.
It, like presses your pressure points so it helps you not get nauseous.
So gonna have to get some of those too and see if that helps for tomorrow sessions because now I have to do two because Chandler did her two already and I'm one behind.
Have to do two. You get to do two. It's so fun.
Oh, God. Okay, now we're gonna go to Walgreens to go get nausea medicine and some gingerol for my tummy and then we'll go from there. Leonard's food truck be popping. Might have to check out the actual bakery soon. Stay tuned.

Lanikai Beach Two thumbs up. Family friendly. Waves aren't too crazy. The Lanikai beach side does get packed. So if you go to the residential side where it's hard to find a parking, there's like between houses, there's little entryways to get to another beach. And that one's less packed and a lot better for sure. But it's a little bit of a walk if you park at the Lanikai side and then walk over to the residential side.
But you have to. There's not really any other parking.
No, but highly recommend. Now to the temple. Secret temple. Maybe it's not so secret. Let's go. I don't know. We'll find out.
Sa.
We made it back. Ramen Nakamura was delicious. The only thing is that parking stinks. Yeah. On that beach road. Beach walk road where Ramen Nakamura is. If you keep going down it, you will. Right before Embassy Suite on the left hand side, there's free parking. It's like a little ramp. But you have to download that parking mobile app. I'll put the name of it right here. Download that app before you go there. Because downloading it underneath that little parking spot is terrible. That's one of the only spots that I found had parking that you could pay for. And it was reasonable. It was like three. $3.50 for three hours. That is all I have for today. Thank you. Like, subscribe. See you tomorrow. Going diving. Hopefully I don't get to get. Yeah. And drop all over the place.
Yes.
