People come from all over the island to dive here, since the water is extremely clear allowing you to see all the different sea life. When the tide is low, small tide pools are created. My children can spend numerous hours playing in the pools. They’re either looking at all the colorful fish that are trapped or just sitting in the pools, cooling off from the hot Okinawa sun. Sometimes they get overly excited going from one pool to another and slip on the coral reef, which can put a damper on all the fun.

Western Stereotypes of Hawaii I few years ago, during my junior year of high school I went on a trip to Washington, D.C. While on that trip I met a girl from Illinois who was so awed by the fact that I had come from Hawaii. She started asking me many questions about Hawaii. She asked if I lived in a grass hut or how large were the waves that I surfed because to her, everyone in Hawaii knew how to surf. She also asked if our Santa Clause comes in on a canoe wearing an Aloha Shirt and surf shorts.
The plane ride was long, but I was very comfortable the whole way. I was so full on delicious food by the time I got to Texas I didn't even eat dinner there. I got my baggage and took a cab to the the hotel that I was going to be staying in. Shortly after arriving, I went to sleep to prepare for the tournament which started promptly the next day.
Hammett Farms Park Hammett Farms Park is a fun place to spend the afternoon. Being the only park in my neighborhood Hammett Farms Park is a place filled with laughter and smiles. The park has the structure of a pirate ship worn out from the years. The long red slide is the most thrilling ride in the park. You can always find a big smile at the end of the long red slide.
I remember looking down into the water and seeing a crab nestled on a rock. There were Buskers playing piano accordions, and the music followed us as we walked down the boardwalk. It was the perfect day to visit the ocean for the first time. The city is surrounded by tall, thick, green trees; slowly changing color to yellow and orange. As a child, every fall, my parents would take me and my siblings camping.
It was the best summer of my life. I made a lot of friends, and at the end we got Junior Guard bags, T-shirts, and of course Junior Guard Stripes. This stripe has a lot of sentimental value for me because this is a symbol of the Junior Lifeguard camp. I went through a lot of things at this camp, and I am not going there again, so it can be a very good reminder of time I spent there. This stripe was given to me by the Junior Lifeguard couch.
I forget how many levels of the ship there were, but it seemed like a lot because by the time we got to the top it seemed like we had been walking through it forever. Getting to the top was pretty cool because they had a lot of old jet planes up there and we were able to sit in some of them and take pictures. At the end of the day, I remember being very worn out from all the walking around. After all the nice, fun, and relaxing days in California our weekend vacation came to end and we all had to head back to Arizona. Keep in mind, we are still driving the minivan until we reach Yuma again and can pick up the SUV that was being worked on.
Swimming in the water, sunbathing, eating juicy burgers straight from the grill, tubing down the river, scuba diving to find lost treasure, and enjoying the beautiful scenery the river offers. I didn’t want to leave that day. I wish I could go down every day to repeat things. But I knew I would be back
