Hawaii 2008 - Part 3

We had a wonderful day kayaking and snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay with Aunt Nicole, Marie and Dave. This is where the Captain Cook monument. Premo snorkeling and awesome lava flows to explore with large waves crashing.

On 2/23 we hiked to this really cool crater on a rare clear day. What a treat.

Hawaii 2008 - Part 1

We had a wonderful time in Hawaii. We were in Kailua-Kona visiting Linda and Helmut. They were fantastic hosts and very gracious. So much to do and see. True paradise. There are many unique beaches for different activities: snorkeling, boogie boarding, kayaking, and general playing in the sand, etc.

Fun at the Train Museum

We had a great time Emma, Dave, and Joe at the Train Museum. We got to ride around on the train and see the sights.
