Nate's Visit

I feel like there's way too much to write about, so I'm just going to zoom through recent events to catch up.

So first big thing, Nate visited Hawaii!  We went to the Big Island and did a one-day whirlwind tour of everything from the macadamia nut factory to the black sand beach to flowing lava!  The next day we went on a catamaran ride which was definitely worth the time and price.  $29 for all you can drink beer, soda, and maitais and a sunset ride.  On our ride and Aussie couple got engaged.  SO CUTE.  :)  After the catamaran we went to a comedy show.  It was at Sharkey's in Waikiki.  I don't exactly recommend going to this show.  It's mostly guys starting out practicing their jokes on audiences of like... less than 10 people.  However, we lucked out and Dat Phan happened to be in Hawaii and hopped on the bill.  He was hilarious.  We also went on one of those submarine rides.  It was kind of cool... but not really worth the money in my opinion.  That afternoon we went on a 2 hour horseback ride a Kualoa Ranch.  My butt was so sore during the ride (what can I say, I'm no expert rider), but the views were amazing and it was really fun to ride a horse with my honey.  :)  One of the main highlights for sure was going on a midnight "shark hunt" with 955-FISH.  They're a great low-key company and we caught 2 sharks on our boat ride.  I got to reel one in!  $99 to catch a shark... not bad.  Anyways, in between all this stuff we ate good food, saw four movies (yes, four), and just enjoyed each other.  ((sigh))  Some random pics from Nate's visit are below.
