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...
