Hello! It's me again and we're back from paradise. Two weeks in Hawaii - one week on the big island hiking in Volcanoes National Park, watching sea turtles in the bay, swimming in view of the incredible coastline, experiencing the Kapono tidepools with the coral gardens - big sky and big weather. And the other week on Kailua beach on Oahu - fabulous house with private pool and spa, the warm emerald green bay for body surfing, the coconut palms and tradewind breezes, the tropical fish, the hammerheads, the ting geckos popping up -- I've never experienced anything like it. It's the stuff of dreams. Pure tropical fantasy vacation.
Of course it wasn't all perfect. Chris passed a gallstone and lost his glasses on the beach. And driving on Oahu is crazy because they don't mark the roads very well. We spent a lot of extra time driving back and forth across the island. One time we had just driven over and could see Kailua and then after yet another screw-up, we were heading back to Pearl Harbor on the other side of the island. But then finally we'd land back at the house, settle in poolside for an iced beverage on the beautiful stone patio - or on the white sand beach. It was lovely.
