Internet access is great.  Instead of waiting until later, I can post stuff as we go along.

We’ve just ended our 2nd day on the island.  We spent the 1st day recovering from our trip.  We were about 45 minutes over the Pacific when the pilot told us we’d have to turn around due to engine vibration.  Pretty scary, but all went well.  The delay cost us about 7 hours total and we didn’t get in until 7:30.  We did find out that Cody’s football coach, newly married the day before, was on our flight.  His new wife took the picture you see posted of our lei greeting.

Today, after a great breakfast at Charley’s, (thanks Pam and Willie) we braved the rain and hiked up to twin falls.  Cody literally carried Luke in for a better view.  After the boys were soaked, we make the drive up 10,000 feet to Haleakela, a dormant valcano.  Freezing temps and wind kept our visit short, but what a site.  We were actually above the clouds.  You can see 100 miles to the big island of Hawaii.

Tomorrow (or I guess by Pacific time, today) is my birthday so while Bernie golfs, we’re going to do my favorite thing…shop!
