Long day short check in

We spent the morning at Two Steps, snorkeling, then  on the way to Hilo, stopped at PunaluĂș Black sand Beach and saw hawksbill turtles nesting Just before the beach we stopped at the PunaluĂș bakery... the best Hawaiian Sweet Bread and meals..

The Bid Island: Kona Coffee, painted churches and Sea Turtles

The Painted Church was beautiful and open to take a look.

Thunder Mountain Organic Coffee  this was a very "educational" tour at 3200 ft. They grown and distribute award winning coffee though out the United States and beyond The tour was very personal and you went from picking the "cherries" to roasting and tasting..

We snorkeled again with the Sea Turtles and other beautiful fish on the coral reef... those pics. will have to come later. But the you tube video is exactly what we did...

Today we leave Kona, snorkel once again and head to Volcano National Park and our bed and breakfast in Hilo...
Stay tuned..
Aloha!

Hawaii, The Big Island

Hawaii is paradise in our own backyard. Of all the islands.. Hawaii(The Big Island) is my favorite..
Like the other islands they have lush tropical water falls and beautiful beaches. BUT... they also have active volcanoes, coffee growers and multiple climate zones. If you want to have a relaxing honeymoon or romantic get away.. Kauai or Maui are great.. but if you think you may want to do more then relax on the beach.. check out
my favorite Island. Hawaii, the big island!
