Our photos were taken by fellow traveller. We took photo for them, so they counter offer us to take ours.
This is by Keanae Lookout The black rocks are all razer sharp...they are lava rocks.

This shot was taken by Mom. She took a  tour won by raffling by Jon...to Hana HWY.  This is one of the most amazing state park we have ever been too. A must see! Waianapanapa State Park. BLACK SAND and Surreal Alice wonderland feel of the whole place. There are trails you can hike around to the the amazing coast line. We arrived later than her, so we missed the blue sky. It was drizzling by the time we arrived so picture didn't 'turn out as nice.

Hawaii island day 3

1/15 was such a fine day, perfect weather~
We took a hike on the Makapuu Lighthouse Trail. Photos turn out really great today.
Later we took Island Air to Maui. Its about 30 Minute flying time.  They charge $15 per luggage. they allow one carrying on luggage under 16 lbs. Pretty strict rules.
we Arrived at Aston at Papakea and stayed 5 nights there. This place is a vacation rental condo. With full kitchen and oceanview. So we hear the sound of crashing wave 24 hours. We can also see the whales when we stand by the shore just outside of our condo.

Hawaii Islands day 2

Day 2- Still have a fever of 102F degree. We decided to just ride around the island. no major activities.

First thing in the morning-a walk to the Waikiki beach~
We live 2 minute walk to the beach.
There are all taken by me using the Nikon D80. i have photoshoped all my photo to enhance the clarity and colors. That's why its taking me so long to write any journal. Hope these photos would bring some fresh air to your eyes~~
BTW, how did i end up in Hawaii....? I frankly don't know. All i know is we had $400 vocher each  from Delta. We end up paying(jon and me each paid approx $150) for airfare. I took my mom as well (her tkt was approx $550). Before this trip i was working long hours and i had little sleep.. my head was spinning everyday....NYC was drilling me and i lost my health, God had mercy on me so He pluck me out and drop me off in Hawaii....this is all i can say. And we didn't spend alot..i guess about $1200-$1500 each person? Including lodging and rental car for 10 days 9 nights. I thought we did very well. We even hop to Maui.
So please do not think we have splurge on our trip. We didn't eat in any fancy place (since my allergy I was not suppose to eat seafood-though i still ate some sashimi  and rash broke out....*sigh*). Jon and Mom did
alot cooking and we had some of their locally grown ginger, papaya, purple yam, spam riceball..etc. All were
delicious. Maybe many people thought about Hawaii is just for Honeymooners, or golfers...and Japanese loves to come here and shop. However, I think we went  because we love nature...especially the ocean and all the creatures in it. I didnt' hit any shopping plaze while i was there...and i do not miss it at all.


Genesis 8:21
New International Version (NIV)
21 The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though[a] every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroyall living creatures, as I have done.



Then we head to Makapuu point.

Crystal waves
Misty view of Makapuu light house
Fan shaped mountain...very unique

What kind birds? I call it little red riding hood.

Very windy and a bit drizzling. Good news for the surfers but not for us non-surfers.

Hawaii Islands day1

Since i was sick while in Hawaii, my brain was sort of not working properly ....with 104F degree when i landed in Oahu. Thanks to God that i was ok but my body developed rashes and I was not able to eat much raw fish/seafood....so that is one regret - which Oahu is known for its fresh Japanese sushi...
However, since i never get a chance to organize my photos on any of my trip, i will try to divided by days. lots details were lost since i had a high fever. Sorry~

Day 1 -went to church called NEW HOPE CHURCH in OAHU in the morning. Check out their website. A very upbeat, friendly and Christ centered church.

Took a leisure walk by the North shore. (don't remember the name though...too many beaches there).
The relaxing atmosphere of Oahu is Magical....I felt much better after the walk...and seeing everyone smiling and playing....
