Monday, the second day of winter.
It rains heavily during the night - this is the shipwreck site near the big island.

Between breakfast and the arrival of the school bus, there is just enough time to have a birthday party for rascal, who is about to age up to an adult dog.

One moment he is a puppy... the next moment he is a large ball of black fluff. (Rascal's mother is a Labrador - his dad was probably a smaller mutt. As Labradors go, he still looks like a puppy!)

The teens take turns wishing Rascal a happy birthday.

The schoolbus arrives just as a beautiful red sunrise starts.

At the same time, the Sunlit Tides Winter Festival opens. The winters here may not be snowy, but hot chocolate still looks appealing!

Rascal's first wishes are to visit a beach and a park, so Matiu takes him to Surf Point beach across the street.

Next they visit the dog park, where Rascal meets a cat named Socks and socialises with her.

The teens return from school accompanied by three townie teens. As always, are proud to show off their Surfing Academy.

They aren't forgetting that prom is coming up in a few days. Ruru catches a private moment with Mindy to ask her to the prom...

... and Jeanette asks Valiant later, in the sunset, because who can say no in such a perfect setting?

Both Mindy and Valiant say yes - so now five of the six kids have prom dates.
