One Week on the Big Island

Not long enough, but quite wonderful...

Coconut Island- immediately after they landed in Hilo




Akaka Falls on a very warm morning



Jams at Mr. Ed's in Honomu



Hakalau- This bridge was originally the train trestle.





Mango daiquiris with our own mango purée 



Early morning on the Kona side-as seen from the chartered fishing boat we were on



Another sunrise shot on the boat



The first Ono/Wahoo he caught-about 20 pounds



His second catch-A 48 pound Ono!



The deck hand swiftly cut up our 70 or so pounds of fish



It was both adventurous and relaxing...



Besides catching it, he made the best sashimi ever-so incredibly fresh



He also dipped some in rice flour and fried it in coconut oil-my most favorite cooking oil



Daughter had to have a visit to Ken's House of Pancakes, of course.



Then a great walk at Carlsmith Beach Park, just past Richardson's.



It was gorgeous out there.



Another fine feast prepared entirely by our sweet guests.



Ready for grilling...



Ono in teriyaki marinade



Saying goodbye is so hard...



But they had a great visit.
