View from the hotel
 

We learned about the Ancient Hawaiians

We walked on the lava coast at the place of Refuge (ignore my thighs..)

We got sand in our shoes

We saw dolphins in captivity

and Humpback whales in the wild

We hiked down to a beautiful black sand beach at Waipio Valley

And we swam at the black beach

We even hiked back up again

We enjoyed a resort luau and made Dr. Jay dance with the hula guys

We drove across the Island to see a volcano in action

And to walk where the volcanoes had thrown their lava

And where it ran over a town

We saw the sea and the lava meet

All in all, I would say we had fun

Oh, and the meeting was A-okay!(note- Name tag…see it really was a meeting!)
