This day David, Chris, Nathan, Mia's husband John, Ben, and Hannah headed off early for a refresher dive off the shore of a nearby beach. While we were exploring the reef life off the shore, all the non-divers headed to the Maui Ocean Center Aquarium to get a view of what we were experiencing in the wild.
The kids got to pet a star fish.
They snapped a picture of a trumpet fish which the divers saw a lot of that day.
Even Jane (with mom Rachel) enjoyed the trip.

All the kids loved seeing the shark tank and even cooler that there was a diver in the tank with them. Apparently if you are a certified diver you can dive with the sharks, too. Maybe next time.
After a nap we headed down to the town of Lahaina to check out the shops and get dinner. Everyone wore their conference T-shirts.
Back row from left: Mia, John, Dorothy, Little John, Nathan, Rachel and Jane, Emma, Ben, Hannah, Kadence, Bryson, Austin. Front row: Edward, Ethan, David, Chris
We also included a family tree on the back of our shirts and each person put an "x" on the tree to designate "you are here".
We had dinner at a restaurant in town and got to watch a beautiful sunset.
