About Me

My photo
I'm Coralyn, a Californian native. I am mother to a crazy 4 year old girl named Madison, a baby on the way, and a wrinkly Shar-pei. My husband is in the Army and we have moved from California to Hawaii and from Hawaii to beautiful Colorado. I'm a stay at home mom and student/art major. I love painting and drawing and hope to share some of these things with you throughout my blog along with other random moments in my life.

Hanauma Bay all the way (sort of)



Welcome to Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve

Where you can spend all day snorkeling with some of our friends such as...
humuhumunukunukuapua'a
and lau Wili Wili.
and of course our dear friend Honu...


Except for me.

I would rather be poked in the eye than snorkle with these water creatures!
I don't think they're cute.
The only fish I like to see up close and personal is this kind



The first time I went snorkeling (in the Bahama's on my honeymoon) a huge fish the size of a Saint Bernard with fangs, tried to get cuddly with me and I smacked it in the face with my flipper!
I tried to give it another shot the first time I ever went to Hanauma bay (6mo preggo) I had an anxiety attack, got stranded on a huge piece of coral (which i was terrified a huge eel would pop out of and bite me).. and cried my way back to shore with the help of my brother in law's girlfriend! People could hear me screaming through my snorkel under water every time a fish came even remotely close to me!
So this time I decided...
I think I'll hang out with the random Japanese tourist that don't speak a word of English and are scared of the water.





While my husband and friends enjoy the snorkeling.. :)
