Hawaiian Vacation Part II

After spending about four days with my sister and her husband on O'hua we flew to the Big Island. We stayed in Kileaua National Park at a lodge the military maintains there for their members. We had a very nice one bedroom cottage. We spent our time on the Big Island hiking around the volcano, driving around the coast, spending some time at the beach, and one night we went up the observataroy. Brigham loves to look at the stars.

James playing the sand he actually went straight into the water this time, unfortunately he was not wearing a swimsuit.

This is at South Point which apparently is the southern most point of the United States.

After the big Island we flew back to O'hau and spent two more days with my sister and husband. Anna loved her aunt's red necklace.
