Lanikai "Bunkers" Hike

Ready, set, go!!!

The start of our trail. This is the point where Oliver abandoned his shoes. Yes, he hiked this whole trail without shoes. I get the parenting award:) That kid is tough

Once we got to the first platform and felt the ocean breeze! It was warm so we were working up a sweat.

Basking in the glory that is our home

Amelie set off to make some headway on her own (not for long).

Onto the next hill

Up, up and up

The next flat spot. This was a pretty easy hike to do with kids, as long as you have a hubby like mine who's got everybody's back. It doesn't take long and into the first 10 minutes you already have amazing views.

The view on the other side. This is where we live:) Out our front window is this mountain we hiked and now I can look at it and think "conquered"!

Like I said, hubby's got us covered. Ollie's feet needed a break at this point but we weren't ready to give up.

Getting even further up. You can basically see all of Kailua behind us

We made it to the bunkers!

Ollie said, look the guys who painted my skate park came here too!

That up there where you see the person standing is the highest point. We weren't ready to make the trek up there quite yet, maybe next time:) Gorgeous

We got someone to take a family picture

Our sweaty, lovely smiles

I even got a great smooch from my #1 girl. She enjoyed being carted around like a monkey this whole hike. Lucky for us she still weighs under 25 pounds:) We could probably seriously put her in a baby carrier still. Kinda love that
