SCUBAnauts Operation Deep Climb – Day 7

The KOK is the ship. Its full name is the KA`IMIKAI-O-KANALOA. Just a note that Scubanauts is misspelled on the cake.

Today Sergeant Gregory, Captain Rob, the other seven teenagers and I flew back from the Big Island [to Oahu] and returned to Pearl Harbor. Tonight we had a barbecue with the entire rest of the group. It was nice seeing everyone else again and hearing about their trip and telling about ours. Mr. Stephens, who I haven’t talked to a lot, congratulated me on completing the mountain. I really appreciated this because Mr. Stephens has done so many outstanding things and his comment seemed really sincere.

Today we were allowed to sleep in a little till around eight thirty when Mark one of the producers told us the bad news. The KOK had needed to undergo some repairs that they thought would be down by the time we got off the mountain, but they were wrong. The KOK was still not fixed so instead we were flown back to Honolulu to catch back up with the other group. When we got back to the Bachelor’s Officer’s Quarters we were allowed to relax till dinner which was a BBQ. After the BBQ we all went back to sleep.
