Day 6-Moving to the Condo, Swap Meet Take Two, Kualoa Ranch Expedition

Today was our last day in the condo. Here are a few more pictures of our beautiful view.
And this cute boy that I couldn't live without. He is my favorite
After checking out of the condo we called the airbnb to see if we could check in early and luckily they said yes. Before we headed their direction the kids wanted to go back to the swap meet. They knew exactly what they wanted this time so it was faster for sure. We had just the right amount of time to stop at the airbnb before needing to be back to north shore for our last craft class. Some how I forgot to take pictures of the necklace and earrings we made. They turned out so cute and it was so fun to be back on the beach.

Then off to one of the tours I had been looking forward to...the jungle tour. Kualoa Ranch was beautiful. We chose to do the jungle tour. It was a good mix to get to see the ranch, where they did movies, and the beautiful views.

While we waited to load up the kids visited the horses and fed them some leaves. The horse tour sounded fun but our kids weren't quite old enough to do it.

The ride was bumpy but I think that made it more fun. The kids specifically loved when they would gas it and head up a bumpy hill. The views got more beautiful the higher up we got. 

Once we drove to the top there was a small hike we could take to see the entire island. 







This was our hike back down








This was a helicopter that was used in a movie shoot and then they left it and it has been used in other movies since. 
Another one of the highlights of the tour was getting to see movie scenes from Jurassic Park. The kids have loved these movies for as long as I can remember. 








When we got back to home base at the ranch we noticed they had a small petting zoo. There were a few turtles and goats. It took several pictures to get Liam to look at the camera. He was afraid the turtle was going to jump up and get us.

The kids begged us to buy some small legos sets and we settled on only buying one and once we opened them we were so happy we only bought one. The pieces were so tiny and it was near impossible to build. On the way home we stopped at 7 Brothers. It came highly recommended and we weren't disappointed. It was yummy.
