Last Day

Flight leaves 10pm, so just hanging out today, cleaning the many towels we used at the beach during our stay. Eating breakfast, lunch and dinner on the lanai. And enjoying our memories of this beautiful paradise.

Hawaii, 2009, day?

Ok, so I lost count of days.....that's a good thing!

Jim wanted to post our night out to eat at Roy's just for the Kalima family. Later, Jim and I went up to the Hilton to see the sunset.

Christmas morning

We had Christmas morning by the decorated Christmas plant. We all got something to open. I got a nice necklace and matching earrings. Jim got a Starbucks card! whooo hooo. Max, got Nintendo DS games. AND best of all we all got a trip to Hawaii to celebrate it!

Day 3, Hawaii 2009

Started the day...where??? STARBUCKS. Afterward we drove to Waimea for breakfast. They serve an army of food for cheap, it's a cute hole in the wall joint. On our way back we took the long route through Hawi. Surprisingly enough, we don't seem far from home with the Cacti. On the way back to Waikoloa we stopped at a few shoreline beaches.

Day 2, Hawaii 2009

Jim started out getting his Starbucks, they open at 5am. We walked down by A Bay which is located at the Marriott. Later, we went to Hapuna Beach to spend the afternoon. Max hit his head and broke open his toe! After getting cleaned up we drove to Kona to eat at Bubba Gumps on Alii Dr. which has a beautiful view of the ocean and sunset.
