***********************************************
I’ve been frantically transfering archived video to my playlist and Youtube and getting mixed results (Justin are you seeing this?). Anyways, it works about 50% of the time, but when I get a fail message I just keep trying, so eventually I’ll have everything uploaded in about a week. I’m also gonna try to get some higher quality video clips of the wedding out by the end of September. In the meantime, enjoy the highlights I have so far.

Well this is our last day on the Big Island…I’m pretty tired and lazy right now, island life can do that to people. I think we’re gonna go to the pool or beach today and kick back before our last dinner with the whole family. Then we have to start to pack and clean up around this place. I’d really like this place to be my Hawaii vacation home, but at 1.5 million, that’s not happening unless I win the lottery. Everybody is gone and going to places they want to see before they leave the island.

On Saturday, the day before the wedding, Jen, Alani, Ethel, Evan, Jon and Nic went parasailing in Kona.

Yesterday we all went to the town of Hawi located at the very top of the island and to go ATVing. That was pretty cool. The tour lasted about 2 hours and was 15 miles long.

It was pretty rough and alot better than the ATV tour we did on Oahu.

The route included lots of rolling and rocky hills and ends up at a waterfall where we have to hike down about 75 yards. It was a tiring hike back up the steep hill, but we made it. At the end of the tour everybody was soooo dirty. If you ever do this tour, bring extra clothes and a towel to wash up and change into.

Afterwards, we went into town and ate at a restaurant called, Lukes, recommended by one of our tour guides. It was an unexpectedly nice restaurant in a rural town. Everbody like what they ordered. The funny thing about it was that about halfway through our meal, our ATV tour guide walked out of the kitchen wearing a Luke’s restaurant shirt and waved hello to us as he walked by. We then drove back to the house, and decided to go bowling over in Kona. On the way to the bowling alley, I dropped off Jen at the airport.

At the bowling alley, I failed to hit any pins on my first turn but Karen and Louie seemed to feel at home here on the lanes. They displayed good form and had the scores to prove it. I think even Evan beat me.

Okay, off to the pool…
