Kauai, Kona, Oahu

Having lots of fun! Glad we are getting to do another cruise. It was fun this AM to have the ship to ourselves (well, there are a few back to back cruisers like ourselves). Today we meet up with 8 additional friends on this next cruise! Kristen and I have our own room this time as Cramer is sharing with 2 other guys and Matt decided last minute to fly back to Anchorage for a potential job opportunity (he will be living in my condo and paying rent...yea!).

In Kauai we did the adventure of taking the free Walmart shuttle. Then Cramer and I hitchhiked out to a waterfall/rope swing and did that a couple of times. Got some good pics and a little muddy. In Kona 6 of us rented a car and snorkel gear and attempted to snorkel with dolphins like friends of ours had done the week before. However the dolphins did not get the memo. There was a ton of coral right near the shore and my camera takes great underwater pics. It was pretty cloudy skiies both here and Kauai so pics aren't too scenic.

In Honolulu right now, didn't get off the ship yesterday. I enjoy the ship when all the people are off doing excursions. Kristen and I like to work out multiple times a day, eat multiple times and not fall asleep before 10 pm. This is our life.

Internet has been really expensive so far so I don't write much. Right now its $10 an hour and I also need to check email and book some flights. Tomorrow we're on another Hawaiian island, then we are at sea for 5 days. I'll be able to update the blog more often in NZ when internet access should be more readily available and reasonably priced. Cheers!

Brandon has been in hosp. since Wed. afternoon. May get to come home Friday. Severe tonsillitus and dehydration. Altho mono test came back neg. Dr thinks that's what it is. Came on very suddenly Mon. during nite. When I got him into Dr at 1 pm Wed., they did tests, watched him 30-40 min. then sent us to hosp, he couldn't even walk in, had to have wheel chair. Scary! Lots of people praying. Thank you!

Love, Mom
