Our trip to Hawaii 11-20-09
December 3, 2009, by Leslie Janous | Add a comment |As many of you already know from the previous two blog posts, we decided to go to Hawaii to spend Thanksgiving with our nephew Brandon and his fiance Rachel. We had a crew of nine people! It was a truly amazing trip and just what I needed to help me recover from a difficult surgery.
Thank goodness our good friends Rich and Heather took plenty of photos because I was pretty limited in my movement and definitely wasn’t up to lugging around photography equipment. Here are some photos they captured from the beautiful Big Island!
This is a shot of hole 3 on the Mauna Kea Golf Course
LOVE palm trees!
The fabulous soaps at our hotel!
Heather parasailing!
Rich parasailing!
Love these signs!
The road to our resort.
Above the clouds on Mauna Kea Mountain…Rich and Heather made the long drive up there not realizing it would be freezing when they got to the top! Everyone was bundled in ski gear and they had on shorts and flip flops!
The sunset from Mauna Kea Mtn.
Heather in this crazy awesome tree.
My mentor, Rich.
We took a drive to the other side of the island to see this black sand beach.
We stopped for lunch at the Bamboo Restaurant. The “Today’s Special” sign advertised “Naked Chefs and Wild Women”.
I will be posting some more photos from the last part of our trip when I felt a little better and got out with my camera!
A big thanks to Rich and Heather for sharing their photos!
