Many children have one favorite wish. But 11-year-old Ri'chard let his imagination run wild—literally. He had several wish ideas lined up, including sleeping in a cage with a wolf, skydiving from an airplane and traveling to the moon. He finally decided on a trip to Hawaii with his family.
But with an imagination like Ri'chard's, you can imagine that this was to be no ordinary trip to Hawaii. Ri'chard took in all that Hawaii had to offer. In place of parachuting, Ri'chard and his family toured the islands from a helicopter. Rather than flying to the moon, they had an out-of-this world experience on a snorkeling adventure. And instead of spending time with a wolf, Ri'chard joined the local dolphins for a playful swim.
From the picture, it's hard to tell who had a better time.
