On Saturday, July 2nd, 2011, the kids had their final examination in the morning. After that, we departed for Kona for the snorkeling cruise. Despite an overcast, cold day, the kids had a great time snorkeling, going down the slide, and jumping off the boat. Upon returning back to HPA, we devoured pizza and then took off for Mauna Kea. Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain in the world if you consider it from sea floor to summit. We went up to 9000 feet to go star gazing. It was pretty awesome!
