My friend and her husband arrived Monday, October 2nd and it was great seeing them safe and sound. We just hung out Monday and caught up on old times. Tuesday, October 3rd was our deep sea fishing expedition which left me throwing up three times and remaining in the horizontal position for roughly ten hours. While getting up to see all the excitement (caching a fish) I hurled once more on the side of the boat, but glad we finally caught a fish. It was my friend's husband that caught the fish which made me very happy. Although I was sea sick it was kind of nice to just lie down and relax and do absolutely nothing. Wednesday, October 4th, my friend and I do our first run together in preparation for the half marathon. We did five miles and my friend did great, due to the fact she is getting over bronchitis. Thursday, October 5th I took my friend and her husband on a hike to some beautiful waterfalls. We then stayed the night in Wakiki and have a nice and relaxing evening. Friday, October 6th we did a small run, hiked Diamond Head, and then hit the surf. They did great and had a really nice time on the waves. They got up a little but are ready for some more. Today is Saturday, October 7th and we are preparing for our swap meet shopping and our pontoon boat adventure. We will have a nice relaxing day in preparation for tomorrows' race.
