A few views from our brief but welcome time in Hawai'i. Elizabeth can't get over how sweet it is to drink tap water.
With Leolani and Teitjen -- we were told to make funny faces, but not everyone complied...
Teitjen showing us what to look for (and we did see some whales)
Blue waters at Makapu'u
Poolside (with much gratitude to Judy and family for the hospitality!)
Grits basking in the good light
More of said light
Satoshi, clearly terribly stressed out
Elizabeth's brother John, in no hurry to return to Ohio
Makena and Luka, enjoying the last light
Stuart, Kayo, and Mana visiting from Tokyo
Watching monster waves on the North Shore, Christmas Day
Purnima was back in Hawai'i from India
Maka: two legs down, but it's not holding her back
Andy being adored by dogs, Marty being adored by cats, Grits laughing
Andy listens attentively
One half of the feline troops at the Gresham/Anderson compound
Linguists at rest (Patricia and David) -- guess the movie wasn't all that absorbing
Now we're off to southern California for a bit...
I should not be commenting as I have no nice comments as I am a)not in Hawai'i b)missing you all terribly and c)not a pet owner. So I give this post a resolute HMPH! Grumble, grumble...glad you had fun.
ReplyDeleteDear Elizabeth & Marty,
ReplyDeleteGlad we could see you two for a brief spell yesterday - next time we'll try to get there earlier! Impressed by how fast you posted yesterday's photos. Good luck on the next leg of the trip!
Cy, you have been much missed!!
ReplyDeleteBetter than missing much! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, wow - Maile is HUGE!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteUm, yes, Megan. We can use that as a kind of index to see if she looks at this post... because if so, I think you'll be hearing about that comment.
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to coax a photo or two from her, but she completely ignores those requests. Thanks for posting one!
ReplyDeleteI tried calling you the other day; I left a long and rambling message on what I HOPE was Marty's parents' answering machine...do you have free time this weekend to chat?
