Postcards from Hawaii

Wish you were here... no, really... this is the view from the hotel room
This too!
The kids loved the koi ponds at the hotel. Hungry buggers!
Real, glorious Kona coffee beans
Even chickens love some coffee
Mist rolls in at the Polalu valley
How much more tropical does it get?
A step back into the Jurassic at Akaka Falls
Akaka falls plunge over 400 feet
Snack (and art) time at What's Shakin'
Giant Heliconia plants with their alien spawn looking flowers
World Botanical Garden falls
Those rocks used to be lovers,now they protect the bay :)
"Dad, do you have to be so silly?"
Kailelua volcano??? Where are the fireballs?
Right out of the Thurston lava tube, you step 200 million years back in time to giant fern forests
a Honu or Hawaiian green turtle at the Refuge near Kona
Only the king could land a canoe here!
Yes, we have bananas
With these door guardians, I bet they did not have Jehova witnesses calling on
Carmen and Joe at the beach, screaming at the kids
Yes! I got ankle deep in water
Black lava rocks, black sands and even black crabs
