The above photos were taken at the Wai Opae Tide Pools in Kapoho on the Big Island of Hawaii.  This was a very special day for two reasons.  First of all I had a great time in spite of being exhausted on my last day of my Yoga Instructor's training.  Of course the second reason was it was the last day of my Yoga Instructor's training and therefore graduation day!

The Wai Opae Tide Pools in Kapoho are a great place for snorkeling, but also for swimming.  Some areas are very warm and some are quite cool.  As you swim along the temperature seems to change every few feet which might not sound like it feels good, but it really does!

Here are two photos of my fellow graduates and our two fabulous instructors Hayward (the only man pictured) and Star who is pictured at the right side of the second photo.  We had a beautiful ceremony and an incredible dinner.  I am so proud of my certificate which I tried to photo below ~ I DO realize that it's an odd way to display a certificate :)

Thanks for stopping by and a special thanks to all my wonderful readers.  I have been slowly adjusting to the time change and resuming my daily routine.  Visiting all of you is on the top of my list of things to do <3
