Hawai'i

on Wednesday, August 13, 2008

We just flew back from Hawai'i. We were fortunate to be there for two weeks!!! We flew on Monday, July 28th to Kauai where we spend the week with Bryce's family. All nineteen of us checking out the Garden Island. We snorkeled, swam, jumped off a waterfall, went to the Smith's Luau, got the flu and generally had a great time with the family. Then we (Bryce and Chareen) flew to Oahu where we spent four days where we went to Pearl Harbor, the Polynesian Cultural Center, Waikiki, and stayed in a nice condo we shared with Bryce's brother Brad and his family. Then Bryce and Chareen traveled on to the last destination of the Big Island where we spent two days seeing as much as we could. We saw the observatory, volcano, snorkeled and SWAM WITH DOLPHINS!!!!!! We were out snorkeling and they swam right around us. It was amazing!! A real once in a lifetime opportunity! We then flew home on the most interesting flight we have ever been on with the smell of throw up, a rude ground crew lady, cell phone use while we are taxiing, being thrown into the seat in front of us because the pilot had to stop until the call was ended, and a diabetic gentleman passing out. An interesting way to travel back to the mainland on Monday, August 11th. We could talk for days about our trip so maybe more later.
