Hawaii Day 3- Epic Waves on the North Shore, Horrible Traffic, and dinner at Ted's Bakery

The waves on the North Shore of Oahu today were epic--biggest in a decade.  Of course we had to go see them.  Along with everyone else on the island…  

First we stopped at Sunset beach…or what was left of the beach.  The waves were eating up the sand like crazy!
The waves were very big…but you can't really tell that in the picture… But you can see all the sand in the water.
Police lady directing traffic.  Sometimes when the waves would come in they would cover the road…as you can tell by the sand on the road.
I tried to get a picture as we passed.  It kind of worked.
The next place we stopped was Pupukea Beach Park.  The waves here were even bigger!  And we got better pictures of them.  The waves were scary huge!



Did I mention how horrible traffic was?  People parked where ever and walked where ever they wanted.  Not cool. 

Then we made our way to Haleiwa.  We went back to Surf and Sea.  The town was packed!  And one of the people working at the store said the tide was coming back in and they were talking about closing the road.  So we decided to make a loop around the island…instead of going back the way we came.

And we hit more traffic.  There was some road construction along the way and just a lot of people on the road in general.  It took awhile to get back to Laie.

For dinner tonight we went back to the North Shore to get food at Ted's Bakery.  YUM!
Mmmm…chocolate haupia cream pie is delicious!
Baby K…hanging ten.
