WEDNESDAY

Today when we woke up we all got ready to go hiking. WHen we got there we had to walk on a trail that leads to the crater. It was all like a rainforest in that part. When we finally got to the crater it was all rocky and and kinda hard to walk on. There was lots of cracks in the ground and some of them fell right to the lava chamber. There were alot of cracks that had steam coming out of them. We were walking through the crater for a long time untill we came to the end of it. Then we had to follow trail up back to the begining. It felt like we were in a dense tropical rainforest. Afterwards we went to rainbow falls and Akkah falls wich were both pretty cool. We drove back home and did some of our homework. Then later after dinner we went night swimming.

TUESDAY

Okay so today we started driving to mt. Kilauea. I had the map and i had to get us there. Along the way we stopped at a place called place of refuge. It was pretty there but kinda boring and the road to it was twisting and turing everywhere.

While we were driving we needed to stop at an ATM. In the small town there was a chocalate store called donkey ball. Their special was Donkey balls. who would eat there if they are selling donkey balls. Gross :O After that we went to a place called black sand beach. the sand was really black. It was also really windy. We had a picnic there to. I wanted to go togreen sand beach to but we needed a jeep.

Then we got to the volcano awhile later and went to the museum and then the vistor centor where we wacthed this very very very very very boring movie clip that i fell asleep in and uncle alex started to snore to.

Then we went to the steem vents. Just by standing in them for 5 seconds gets you sweating. But they werent very hot. After that we went to the house where the theme was old. 70s or 80s i think. Around sunset we went back to the jaggar museum and saw the lava glow. It was really really cold. then we went back to the house had dinner then went to sleep a little while later.

We had a great day at a beach just a few minutes north of the condo that is ranked in the top 25 for best beaches in the whole world. The sand was beautiful, the water was warm and we spent most of the day there. By the time we left we all had too much sun!
We stopped and got some milk on the way back to the condo and relaxed before dinner. Devin, Blake and I watched the sunset from the jacuzzi (which was pink and blue). The boys have all be doing a lot of reading. We had a fun dinner talking about our highs and lows of the day. (Blakes Low was leaving the beach). Devin and Quintin's were getting sun burned. (It's a rough life).
After dinner the boys went over to the pool for some night swimming before hitting bed.

Today we are off to Volcano National Park. We're going to stay at a rented house tonight so we can see the lava at night. We'll do some hiking, see the black sand beach on the way there and then Yes Tony, Rainbow Falls tomorrow on the way back to the condo.
Blake is our time-keeper for the trip (He's currently waking everyone up to ensure they are in the car by 8 am). Devin is the navigator. We're going to study the map over breakfast and Quintin is our accountant to make sure we stay on budget.

We'll blog tomorrow night when we get back.
Aloha!

FIRST DAY OF VACATION!!!!!!

Today was awessome!! When i woke up it was 6:00 hawaiian time, but hen i remembered that it was 9:00 California time. After we all got ready we went to this small chapel and it was this chuch service. After the church service we went back to the condo and we got ready to go the beach wich is right across the street. The beach had lots of sea turtels swimming around so I got my goggles and snorkel and I looked at them reallly clooose it was soo coool. we were there for a while then we went back to eat lunch. It was quesadillas with pork in them. they were deelicous. bon appetite :). then we just went to the pool and we stayed there for most of the day and then we went back to have dinner wich consisted of blanc steak, mased potatoes, and salad. That was also really good. We got to watch the sunset wich was sooo pretty. Aunt Heathers mom and dad have to go to the airport sooo were just gonna watch a movie and eat some popcorn.Well time to go.

Devin, Quintin and Blake-We are looking forward to your visit with us in Hawaii. The weather is just perfect as I sit her on the Lanai. Uncle just came out with his snorkel gear so I suppose we are going to hit the beach this morning. The bay is full of beautiful sea turtles and fish to look at.
This afternoon we'll hit the pool and then go hit some golf balls.
