Yesterday was the last day of the Kaneohe Air Show so we decided to chance it with the kids. The show is on the tarmac so I was told it gets hot...wow, I was told right!! Kaneohe Marine Base is open to the public for the Air Show and that's it. Kaneohe is possibly one of my favorite places on the island - beautiful view of both ocean and mountains!!
The girls also got a chance to ride their first rides. They both rode all rides with out hesitation. Emma rode the helicopter ride with her friend Allie and I wouldn't let Sophie - well, daddy said I wasn't being fair as Sophie is crying her eyes out! I gave in and Sophie rode the next ride and just loved it!! I sometimes underestimate what she can do and need to remember she is totally different from our timid Emma.

Well, this is the point when the jets started flying and all smiles mostly went away! They were both tired, hot and not loving the loud engines of the jets flying directly over their heads!!
We did torture the girls with hanging around for the Blue Angels. We bought some ear plugs but the girls wouldn't keep them in. Here are a few pictures taken by Tony while I was trying to keep Sophie calm and ears covered...
