I finally uploaded the last of our photos form Hawaii. These pictures were taken on the last day of our cruise as we returned to Honolulu. The views from the ship were absolutely amazing.

More Hawaii Pictures
During the cruise, our ship spent two days docked at Nawiliwili on the island of Maui. Kyllan and I spent the first day on an amazing snorkeling trip. Swimming with and seeing the tropical fish and sea turtles was like something out of a movie. It was definitely the highlight of the trip for me. Unfortunately we didn’t have an underwater camera, so we only have a few shots on the boat. We spent day 2 of Maui at Wailea Beach. Mainly we just relaxed and enjoyed our surroundings. We did do some boogie boarding, but the waves weren’t big enough to try surfing. Later, Kyllan and I looked around the Grand Wailea, where we now plan to stay when we next visit Hawaii.
On the Big Island we docked at both Kona and Hilo. While at Kona we visited Volcanoes National Park. It was really interesting to gain an understanding of how the islands were formed and I can now tell you all about lava tubes and calderas, neither of which did I know were things before this trip. In Hilo we spent the day at beach in Anaehoomalu Bay. We did some more snorkeling and water sports, but ultimately decided to stick with the whole relaxing and doing nothing thing. And, of course, that evening Kyllan and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary.
I uploaded photos from Maui, Kona and Hilo to Flickr.

We’re Back!
Kyllan and I are back from our amazing trip to Hawaii. We had a great time and can’t wait to share more about the trip with everyone. For now, we need some sleep. There are some pictures from Oahu on flickr, but the photos from Pearl Harbor don’t have descriptions yet. I took over 1,000 photos, so it will be a few days before I get everything up.

Beach
I figure this is as good of time as any to test out the blogging app on my iPhone. As I type this, Kyllan and I are siting on the beach in Maui. Yesterday we went snorkeling. It was amazing. In addition to the tropical fish, we saw about a dozen sea turtles. Tomorrow we head to Hilo where we are going to visit Volcanoes National. I already have hundreds of pictures, but no way to upload them without paying by the minute on the ship. I’m adding one from my iPhone. We will upload some more as soon as we get a chance.

Aloha!
I know we have been awful at posting recently, but as usual, William and I have been busy lately. The good news is that we finally get a break and will hopefully have lots of posts to make soon. Why the sudden change? William and I are headed on a much needed vacation to Hawaii! We will be spending a few days in Honolulu and then departing on a cruise to go island hopping on some of the other islands. The trip is actually William’s graduation present from his parents, but with the moves, job changes, and everything else, we did not get to go sooner than now. During our trip, we will also be celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary! In honor of our anniversary, I have posted two photos. The first is the very first picture William and I took together (it was around October 2002, about a month after our first date. Look how young and skinny we were!!). The second photo is self explanatory.

34th
The weekend before last Kyllan and I attended the 34th annual Williams family reunion in Columbus, OH. Because it was so close, Kyllan’s Parents, grandmother, a cousin and our nephew, who was visiting his grandparents, also joined us. It was good to see both sides of the family. Pictures of the weekend are up on Flickr.

Vegas!
We are taking a trip to Las Vegas this weekend to celebrate Kyllan’s Birthday. It be the first trip to Sin City for both of us. We are still trying to pick a restaurant for Kyllan’s Birthday dinner. Any suggestions?
Also, the weekend before last we attended a recognition ceremony for the graduating African- American students at Kyllan’s old high school, Hockaday. Before then I had only seen it from the outside. Wow. It was nicer the majority of college campus I have been on. The picture below is of all the past and current students that attended. Why is there a room that looks like this in her old high school? Seriously!… A few more pictures can be found on my flickr.
