Brown Sugar Beach

Sunday morning we went to the Bellows AFB beach. This beach is located on the windward side of the island. The common weather pattern brings clouds and rain to the windward side, almost daily. On this day, we arrived at 9:30 AM. There were a few clouds, but they were moving away. For the next 3 hours, we had mostly sunny skies and a beautiful green ocean to swim in.

Jennifer, Angela, and I walked out into the surf and played in the waves for almost an hour. We all had a ball.

One down side of this beautiful beach is the very fine sand. It is softer than most sands on Oahu, but it sticks to everything. Once dried to your skin, it is hard to scrub off. I was still finding sand on me this morning!

Regardless, it was our favorite beach and definitely a high point of the trip. Thanks to our hosts, Stacy and Christy Soutter, for making it so great!


Now the bad news - When I got back to Stillwater, I attempted to retrieve all our vacation pictures from the digital camera. The media card was blank. Put it back in the camera - Blank. I'll see if the computer gurus at work can fix it.
