For the first time in weeks it rains

What at first may appear to be a kink in plans can soon show it's true colors. Since Jon decided to bring the rain with him to Hawaii from Portland, a sunny day at the beach couldn't be considered a good plan. Instead, we headed to the beach to check out tide pools.

All sorts of ocean creatures came out to say hello: clams, crabs, a nudibranch (the see-through thing in the picture below), sea turtles, and sea slugs and anemones. A much slower paced, less active day than the previous day, but our aching legs found that acceptable.
