40 Days and 40 Nights
40 days and 40 nights of rain in Oahu!!! Seriously is there some sort of sun dance? Yesterday I woke up the sound of thunder shaking the house. Madness! 50M gallons of raw sewage flowed into Waikiki closing all of the beaches. Nice. I don't think I will be swimming any time soon. Camilo went spearfishing yesterday despite the weather and he paid for it. When he was trying to come back to shore, the water was so rough that it kept pushing him back. He lost my split fins in the process. The water just ripped them off. He lost his buoy as well. With no fins, a spear gun and only one hand to swim with, it took him about 20 minutes to finally get to shore. Needless to say I had to dig a nice chunk of rock out of his heel later that night. I am grateful that he is a powerful experienced swimmer who doesn't panic!!

I thought you were kidding about the 40 days... But i also read it in the news. Nearly 92 inches -- or about 7.5 feet -- of rain were recorded at Mount Waialeale. Crazy. Stay dry!
Yep, it sucked. They were constantly closing Pali Highway because of mudslides. So it was a little difficult to get to the other side of the island.
