Nielson Family Reunion

My parents and sister and brother-in-law joined forces to let us all stay together at the Ko Olina timeshare property in Oahu, Hawaii. It was wonderful! Great weather, great company and a great tan!
The beautiful resort and private lagoon.

Shaun's first time snorkeling! We saw 4 sea turtles and hundreds of fish!
At Laie Point this huge wave came up behind us and we got a great picture.....
...We also got very wet! My dad, who was taking the picture, did too!We visited a Japanese Temple - Byodo Temple

And saw Obama's hometown!

We also went on a great hike through a bamboo forest and to Manoa waterfall
And of course we played in the waves and made sand castles!

This is my favorite picture of the whole trip! Shaun with our niece Abbie.
