There had been a lot of warning signs for sneaker waves... and I think every one of us got caught by one at some point on the trip.
However, I don't know if any of them were documented, and not nearly as well as this one that Kyle documented of Porter.
Kyle and the boys were out flying kites on the beach while I was taking a nap.
A little boy, thrilled to be flying a kite... has no idea what is approaching him from behind.
At first, he was only a little nervous.
But then he started to get wet.
At this point, Kyle ditched the photos and ran to save Porter. Those sneaker waves were quite sneaky. Just when you thought you were safe, one would jump up and get you.
And although he got pretty wet, Porter was mostly happy that he kept his kite in the air the entire time.

Oh, He stopped taking pictures before that wave hit the back of Porter's chair and flipped him right into the water. He came up sputtering, but still holding on to that kite string!! GREAT pictures, Kyle. And you made the right choice to stop taking them and save your son :)
