Our Last Day in Hawaii

Today, Friday, October 14th was our last day in Hawaii.  We spent the morning at the best beach for snorkeling in Kona.  The beach is called Kahaluu and it was truly amazing.  I have linked the word Kahaluu.  We did take some pictures but we used our underwater video camera for 34 minutes as we looked at the beautiful coral and incredible fish.  After we finished snorkeling, we looked closely at the sea turtles who reside in Kahaluu Beach Park.  The sea turtles were the largest turtles we had ever seen.  I have added pictures to the Exploring Hawaii album.

After leaving the park, we had a quick lunch in our condo.  We then visited Kona International Market and then strolled through town one last time.  We picked up dinner from our favorite sushi takeout place and then ate at the tables in the condo's common area.  We were able to watch the sunset while we finished dinner.  As soon as we finished dinner we needed to load our rental car and head to the airport.

At 8:50 our plane was scheduled to depart.  We would have a four hour flight to Las Angeles and then another four hour flight to Detroit.  We were sad to be leaving but we were ready to come home to Otto and Emme and get back into our normal daily routine.  Our Hawaii trip was incredible and I am very thankful we had this opportunity of a lifetime.
