Aloha adventure on the Big Island!
What a vacation! The beach you see us on is no longer there after the tsunami. We had plenty of warning to evacuate our hotel room and drive to higher ground Thursday night, sleeping in our car. Emma was a trooper and keeps saying we went on an "adventure." She swam 2-3 hours a day and had a blast, not happy to come home last night. :-) We saw at least a dozen humpback whales way out in the ocean and Emma even spotted several of them on her own. Neat!
Thanks for the cute sun hat, Auntie Rachel! It's a tiny bit big but should be perfect this summer. :-)
(I am 31 weeks pregnant in those photos, which were taken before my terrible stomach bug that hit Wednesday overnight and again Friday, keeping me in bed all day Saturday). WHEW! Happy to be home.
We saw the whales from this fun trail walk at a state park by the ocean.

Love the photos, Emma I can't wait to hear more about the adventure! So glad you are home and safe. Janie can't wait to see you tomorrow.
What fun! We had a great trip to the Big Island before Adam deployed, but did not get to have an "adventure" like that! So glad you are safe!

PS You look great, Janie!
Thank you for sharing all the great pictures! Looks like a much-needed family vacation. I'm sure it's an adventure you'll never forget!
