Big Island 8/23/2011

We started our day with breakfast at Cheeseburger in Paradise, yum, they make great eggs as well. We visited old royal grounds commonly known as Sanctuary (this is a place if you offended the royals or the gods you could get cleansed and re-enter society without being killed for your sins.
We snorkled a bit in one of our favorite sites, but Ivona couldnt get her mask to seal properly so she stayed up and caught the rays (she was so sad, not... she loves the sun). 
We ended our day with dinner at Bubba Gumps and sunset at our special place, every time we come to the islands we always visit our "photo stump".  Enjoy the scenery we did.  Miss everyone back home.....

Maui to the Big Island 8/22/2011

This set and the one behind it are a bit mixed, both the same day.  We visited SoakIvona one last time and made our way from Maui to the Big Island (Rose's favorite island).  Pictures hare!

Rose and Rex renewed their vows which means they are committed for another 10 years!  It was a beautiful ocean front traditional Hawaiian service. Mike Wilkins took a few pictures which are here and more will come when the professional photographers sends the link.  Click here to see the pictures!

The second day of our vacation was spent driving the road to Hana.  Lots of pictures, lots of rain, lots of fun and a hike that wouldn't end!  Enjoy the pictures!

Maui August 19th, 2011

Our first full day of vacation was spent on the Island of Maui.  We spent the day exploring the island while Mike and Marjie went on a dive trip. We found a wonderful area we named SoakIvona, she was unexpectedly soaked by a large wave. We closed out the evening with an ocean front dinner and a Hawaiian show, Ulalena.

Happy Birthday Cindy

And who thought Jack could keep anything from Cindy! Jack and friends managed to pull off the surprise party of year for Cindy’s 60th birthday bash, even Elvis joined the festivities.

Cindy, the ultimate Elvis fan, was so excited and surprised she didn’t know what to do, by the end of the evening even Jack was impersonating Elvis (photos included).

Great friends, food and Elvis, what more could any party need. Thank you Antoinette and Kim for opening your beautiful home to all of us. Click here to see the pictures!
