DAY ONE

They packed the bags in Steve's truck and Chin's SUV as Kono pulled up they started the three-hour drive to where pulled up parking area. Chin and Kono both recognized where the other man had an idea of taking the two little kids knowing would be a good idea. Steve helped the kids out and into their backpacks while Danny grabbed the gear. Kono and Chin did the same and they started the long hike up a trail while Gracie and Matt put out their iPod. Took them more than two hours to where finally found good place to camp but both kids helped gather some wood with Kono and Catherine while the guys got the tents ready.

Gracie looked around after she dropped the wood in a pile, "Danno can we go swimming?"

The blonde man looked at his partner, "Sure why not monkey go get ready."

Everyone else got ready to swim and the short walk to the water was fun while both kids had waterproof cameras. Once they got there Gracie ran right in pulling her father along. Catherine and Kono took off their shorts and shirts before following and Chin did the same. Steve put his floaties on before getting close to his wife so the little boy could doggy paddle to her. She whispered in his ear so no one around could hear, "Get uncle D."

Danny about jumped when someone climbed onto his back and was trying to grab him but everyone was laughing so he finally pulled the giggling boy in front, "Okay, that was funny but when do that need to be careful or get hurt. Got it bud?"

He nodded as Danny tossed him over to where Kono and Chin were swimming around making a huge splash, "Gotcha!"

Chin laughed watching as Kono started swimming slowly towards the boy who was going away, "Gracie help me."

Gracie swam over to where her friend was and helped show him how to swim a little faster, "See that wasn't too hard."

Steve looked over from where he had been, "Can swim better than Danno."

Danny whipped around glaring at his partner, "Shut it Rambo. I know enough to drown you."

/*/*/*/

After swimming around for more than an hour Kono and Steve headed to the top of the waterfall, "Sure want to do this?" Steve asked her.

She rolled her eyes, "Chickening out on me boss?"

"Bring it on Kalakaua. On count of 1."

"3..."

"2..."

"1...GO!"

They said at the same time before jumping off at the same time landing not far from each other and of course Danny was holding his daughter's camera taping the whole thing, now he has corrupted the only person that's sane, Danny was shaking his head as the two kids rushed over hugging both of them.

Gracie turned to her uncle, "I want to do-"

"NO WAY!" Danny told her. "Only ninja's or crazy people would do that."

Kono reached over punching him in the shoulder, "Remember I can swim far better than you."

Gracie giggled from where she was tossing a ball with Matt, "Danno I am hungry."

"How about Rambo goes to make something?" the blonde man said. "After all this was his idea."

Steve left and came back about ten minutes later with basket of food, "Sandwiches?"

After they all had something to eat and Matt curled up in his father's arms while rest of the group decided would go walking around the area of the lake. Gracie was disappointed her friend had fallen asleep but took pleasure in listening to Kono and Chin tell her about different things. Danny and Catherine listened to the others but choose to let the little girl have some fun. After about two hours of walking around it was getting dark so Kono started the fire and both kids slipped into some pajama so could roast hot dogs.

Danny grumbled at this, "This isn't only food you packed right?"

Everyone laughed, "What don't like them? Can go catch some tomorrow to eat."

Gracie clapped in excitement, "That sounds like a good idea," she helped tell ghost story she knew and before long both kids were ready for bed. She ran around hugging everyone before yawning once more. "Night uncle Steve and Chin. Aunt Kono and Catherine."

Few minutes later everyone was back around the fire, "This was a good idea boss," Kono said.

"Nice getaway from the city and work," Chin added.

DAY TWO

Steve was the first one awake of course and found that his wife and son curled up using him as a pillow and carefully extracted himself before taking care of business than started the process of making coffee and a light breakfast for when everyone started to get up. Another twenty minutes later Kono popped out of her tent and sat next to him by the fire while Chin did the same thing both taking the offered coffee, "So what's the plan today?" Kono asked.

Steve shrugged, "Maybe some fishing and a hike depending on the weather."

Gracie crawled out about another ten minutes, "Morning."

Kono handed her a juice box that packed, "What you want? Eggs or eggs?"

She sat between the two cousins, "Am glad Danno got back in time to not miss this."

Matt woke up and when he tried to open the tent flap he couldn't scaring him, "DADDY! DADDY!"

Catherine woke up to his crying and pulled him into her lap, "Sh, what's wrong?"

"I can't get out of here," he said sniffling.

She showed him how, "Sure someone is up out there."

Kono smiled as the little boy plopped in her lap, "Morning little man."

He looked around not spotting someone, "Where's my dad?"

"Went to get some water to make breakfast. Be back in a second."

Steve and Chin returned and the man about fell over when he collided with small body and set him next to Chin, "How about you wake Danno kiddo."

Danny groaned when someone was pushing on his arm, "Danno, wake up."

Gracie huffed when he wasn't waking up but took five minutes, "Monkey, days off sleep in."

She giggled as pulled on his arm, "Uncle Steve said need to wake up before we leave you here."

Catherine yawned as walked out kissing her husband before taking cup of coffee, "Wow, definitely not morning person Danny?"

The blonde man rolled his eyes at her, "Not out here for sure."

After breakfast over and cleaned up they decided to hike up to where Kono and Chin knew could find some fish. Gracie and Matt put in extra battery for their ipods and followed the adults but about half way there once hit rocky terrain ended up getting carried allowing them to fall asleep for the last half hour of the hike. Once they got to the stream Kono helped show Gracie and Danny how to cast their poles. Gracie was getting frustrated when didn't catch anything but after another ten minutes she had something on her line and took some help from Danny but finally reeled in a 10lb bass while rest of the group were coming up with smaller fish. Matt sat off to side watching everyone have the fun and she decided to help her friend catch on even if couldn't take the thing. Kono noticed this and stopped to capture moment the two pulled in a 15lb bass.

"Danno look what we caught," Gracie told her father.

He smiled as took picture, "Wow, cool monkey."

"I helped him catch it and aunt Kono helped me get it out the hook."

Took another hour of fishing before caught some more fish but seemed the kids were the ones with all of the luck. Once back at camp Steve and Kono went to work getting the fish ready to cook while Danny took the kids down to the water to get washed up. Gracie whispered something in her friend ear before they both creeped up behind the man and pushed him into the water giggling as he fell face first in and came up spitting out water. They took off running back to where had come from and hid inside one of the tents by the time he arrived.

Steve could hear Chin and Kono laughing as he turned around, "Decide to go for a swim Danno?"

"No seemed the kids thought wanted to. What making for the hooligans anyways?"

"HEY!" came two voices from somewhere. "NOT NICE!"

Catherine had come back with some more wood, "Going native on us?"

Steve rolled his eyes as good the fire ready and made some nachos first than pigs-in-blanket for the kids. Than let Chin get to work on cooking the fish. Gracie watched for a while until that became boring looked around, "Can we go back to the water and look around?"

Kono glanced at Danny who nodded and the two woman took the kids back to water edge where could see different schools of fish swimming around. They started splashing each other before sneaking up behind the adults and did the same thing. By the time lunch was ready Danny found them still splashing each other soaking wet so he called them to say needed to dry off before even thought of trying to eat anything.
