North Shore

We rented scooters to drive North Shore, but before we left we gave all the kids a turn.


Here is the real scooter gang (Zac with Janice on the back, Anna, Caleb, Jason, TJ, and I). I felt like we needed T-shirts or something.

As we scootered up North Shore we stopped at some look out points that were beautiful. Here are some of the sights:

The boys...



This is what we scootered up. It was funny because TJ and Jason could fly (65mph) going on a flat road, but once they hit a hill they were passed by all. It was so funny to watch them putt up the hill. Mine would only go 45mph on flat road.







It was so windy up at the top that Zac was being held up



The highlight was the blow-hole and I loved this sign. It was very clear and to the point.



But you can tell the boys don't know how to read

After getting close to the blow hole, they had to peak over the edge and get wet



This is where we had to climb down to close to the blowhole. It was fun in flip flops and Caleb's sandal got broken!

I definitely have to say that the scooters were a highlight and favorite of the trip. And the best thing was that after having them all day, when we went to fill the tanks with gas it was only $2.60. Very tempting to get one for TJ to drive to work:)

We went there a couple years ago too. I think they put that new sign up. Probably cuz someone got too close to the dang blowhole. I'm ready to go back now. The pearl place is fun too. Total tourist trap, but cool still.
