Another day, another adventure
On the beautiful island of Puerto Rico with Andrea and Kevin. First beverage in hand! Already confronting cultural differences with a cockfighting arena right next door to the hotel.

Brrr
Glad I packed all the cold weather gear and carted it around 3 countries. Barely needed even my coat in Korea or Japan, but I just landed in Reno and it's 32 and 18 tomorrow morning. Little shock to the system.
Last homely house
Bilbo described Rivendell as 'a perfect house, whether you like food or sleep, or story-telling or singing, or just sitting and thinking best...'
That's what Hawaii is. Whether you like mountains or beach, rest or acitvity, solitude or a party, rain (a little) or sunshine, silence or music, it offers it all. Everything except winter.
This morning, while Ive been sitting on my deck lazily listening to the waves crash against the shore and eating banana bread from a roadside stand, I saw people rowing a traditional canoe, and two long distance swimmers in the bay.
Every little spot on the Big Island has its own feel and different ecosystems. Every one of them has been lovely.

The resort
Staying in a resort is kind of like being on a cruise. Sun, activities, poolside bars. Missed the hula and ukulele lessons, so I won't torture anyone with my amateur theatrics when I get home.
she gets wet!
After 3+ weeks of being surrounded by water and island hopping all over the southeast asia, I finally got in the ocean. Snorkeling today at Two-step and Kahal'u beaches.
We saw lots of yellow and black tangs, parrot fishes, sea urchins, angel fish, and one sea turtle!
