Anniversary Trip to Hawaii

Beautiful scenery even at night and listening to the waves crash against the shore. Sitting in one of these andorak chairs was sooo soothing and no worries about kids either.

The lagoon area right....watching from the breakfast area.

Dolphin Encounter Area....awesome!
I never dreamed it would happen this year but my hubby surprised me with a trip to Hawaii....just the two of us! Nana Joy came to Raton, NM and took care of our munchkins for a week! We left on a Tuesday evening for Denver and flew out on Wed afternoon (9/22). We arrived in Kona that evening and even after a huge day of flying we still enjoyed the scenery at the resort that night under the stars. The first evening we stayed at the Waikoloa Resort since our 'time-share' resort wouldn't be ready until Thursday. (This trip was all because of a time-share promotion and free airline miles...what a great way to take a vacation! =) The resort is HUGE....over a mile wide with all kinds of swimming pools, retail stores, etc. They have a train and a boot to transport you if you don't want to walk.
So the breakdown of our trip: Wed night, arrived; Thursday, pool; Friday, zip-line; Sat, snorkel and pool; Sun, meeting and friends; Mon, pool and head home! A lot of water time in there!
