Disneyland trip

Posted by Chad on Jun 16, 2011 in Misc, Photos | 1 comment

I took off with Gee Gee for a couple days to Florida to meet up with a couple friends and check out Disneyland in Orlando Fl. Lucky for us, there wasn’t much of a crowd at Disney and the max waiting time was around 20 mins to check out the shows and rides. Being there for only 2 days, we only had time for the Epcot Center and the Magic Kingdom. (I suggest bringing a small backpack, water, running shoes, sunscreen, camera with extra batteries to these parks.) We really enjoyed the Epcot International part of the park. Having some wine and...

Home video I put together of my trip to Hawaii with Gee Gee. A trip to Pearl Harbor and another trip around the island is where a majority of the video was shot in Hawaii. You will see some shots from the beaches in Waikiki as well as downtown Waikiki and Honolulu. We went scuba diving with a dozen or so green sea turtles. Pretty awesome! http://www.vimeo.com/21121184

Scuba Diving Honolulu with Kaimana Divers – TURTLES

Posted by Chad on Mar 10, 2011 in Photos, Scuba, Videos | 1 comment

Our first dive was at Turtle Canyons. Turtle Canyons was formed thousands of years ago when volcanic activity was in action here on Oahu. Large lava/rock encrusted fingers point out from the shallow shores of Waikiki in a south eastern direction. In between these “fingers” are mostly small rock boulders, coral heads and sand. We saw a dozen or so of Hawaiian green sea turtles in their natural habitat. You can literally swim right with these rare reptiles without a care in the world. Dolphins were are on patrol around this site...
