First few days...


Travel (IAD/LAX/KON)















Could not wait to get out of DC!





















Already forgetting worries in LAX...where are the kids?

Grandpa is there to pick us up!

Going "native" from the get-go!

My uncle and aunt's home.













Day two, traversing the lunar landscape of Kona - home of the Iron Man. Not what I call pretty.









Attending the bi-centennial of the unification of Hawai'i.














Craft time! In this case, woven bracelets.








My aunt is preparing a gourd. Looks great when it's done, but a lot of work!

Great artwork here...
