Just thought I'd give a quick update to save me time uploading pics once I get home :-) We are having a fabulous time here in Kona--since the last post we have relaxed at the pool, been on the gorgeous beach (dealt with our poor cousin Grant dislocating his shoulder while boogie boarding), visited a black sand beach, seen Mount Kilauea at Volcanoes National Park, walked through a lava tube, been snorkeling, attended a luau, seen a beautiful waterfall, taken a trail ride overlooking a valley, had some tasty meals, been shopping, and spent lots and lots of time with our family--can we stay here longer please?

Sarah LOVES it here---a pool out the back door, tons and tons of junk food and free mini bananas, and many people to give her constant attention--what more could she ask for?

The trip has been exhausting of course, especially with Sarah, but she has been an angel and a real trooper, and we could not ask for anything more! :-)
