Hilo, Hawaii

You are probably wondering why we are so far behind on making entries on our blogsite. After our San Francisco entry, the site became frozen and would not accept anything from us. After considerable research we finally found out how to contact blogabond by email. They responded immediately...

Day 5

Our Silver Wedding Anniversary It was a strange night and even earlier morning with no curtains at the window and no door either. Our loo and shower were peculiar again no curtains at the window and they were quite low. I sort of showered stooping over and got dried in the shower. I am sure no...

day 6

Today we had a lot to do and we also had to move accommodation. Fortunately Turtle House had no one moving in so we could worry about moving later on and get straight out and about. First stop Halemaumau overlook again. Pele again didn’t perform but there was a little more in the way of...

day 7

Off to the Puna district today. First stop was the Lava Tree State Park. The lava trees were formed when fast flowing Pahoehoe lava came up against wet ohi’a trees. A thick lava coating was left on the trees which hardened while the trees slowly burned. In some of them you could even see the...

Aloha

And lastly, Hawaii. What a brilliant last stop! It’s been incredible to do some of our re-immersing in real life from the comfort and luxury of this house. On the up side, we’ve been able to get mostly caught up over the course of a week; on the downside, we’ve only been to the beach and driving...

The day I recieved the futon

The guy I was dating at the time was getting ready to leave the islands. As a result he gave me a futon as he no longer had any need for it and would be unable to transport it back to the states easily. Therefore I inherited it, more appropriately it is a yo, not a futon, but I like to call it...
