Mike Wilson takes a picture of his son playing in a kayak on the beach as two hurricanes approach the Hawaiian islands, in Honolulu, Hawaii, August 6, 2014. Hawaiians braced for a one-two punch from a pair of major storms headed their way on Wednesday, as Hurricane Iselle bore down on the islands packing high winds and heavy surf and Julio, tracking right behind, was upgraded to hurricane status.
