Drama at the Bay ?

Something was up at the Bay today. the first picture shows the lifeguards having a mini meeting around and on their ATV. the guy standing with his hands on his waist? thats Mark . he has been a guard since we were in high school. He is the boss now and he deserves it, he is one of the best.



I think what happened is, this group of people in the second picture came to the beach at least 100 of them and brought their own lifeguard!! I can't figure why unless they thought there were no guards there at the bay.


The next picture shows the guard stand from in the water. Now these guards at the bay are some of the best on the planet. I have watched them rescue surfers in 25 foot surf. I guess this group of people didnot know that if your life is in danger these guys got your back !!

The last picture is a photo taken by pro photographer Scott Bass, it shows a 25 foot wave at the bay, those guys on the jet ski? those are the lifeguards!!! LOL They sometimes blow my mind with how fearless they are !!!

Returning Home

It is time for me to return to the North Shore full time. It is at Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu, that I sit and wait for the tell tale ripples of water that signal the DOLPINS have arrived! The water calming down from the massive winter waves that just a few weeks ago pounded this side of the island, i return to her shores full time with glee! I will be subjected to the teasing of the regulars at the Bay who jokingly say, "Wheres the dolphins, Lani?" I always say in my mind, "There are far worse places I would need to wait!" LOLOL. This weekend the Bay gave a sneak performance of how magnificent her waters will be! Clear beautiful water, clean beautiful sand, the sun creating stain glass window like patterns on the sandy sea floor. And if that isn't enough the days of spring and summer on the North shore of Oahu, end with sunsets that are just magic!
