A rest day...julia

Today we thought we would have a day off and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Words can not describe and pictures do not capture the sheer beauty of this place. The accommodation we have is second to none, we have everything we could  possibly need and more. We were lucky enough to find this bit of paradise on airbnb. For those of you who have not heard about airbnb check out the website  airbnb for us it has been a wonderful experience.

So yesterday Robin took us on another adventure to a part of the island, just south a little way to Kealakekua Bay we pulled into the little car park and the Local Boys made a beeline to the jeep, they wanted to take us on a Kayak ride one mile across the bay to the Captain Cook Monument, we decided that we would just view from the beach this time! It was great to hear Robin talking pigeon Hawaiian to the locals, something I have only heard him talk with his siblings.  Its so good having our own Local tour guide!

Along the drive we passed a Plumaria (Frangipani) farm, I just had to stop and buy Nanny a Lei .... couldnt go to Hawaii without having one..  I think she looks beautiful dont you!..
