I haven’t actually been doing much reading, or posting, since last week
… being that I am on vacation in Hawai’i.  Yeah … every now
and then it’s nice to get away.  My parents have a time share for
two weeks every year, and this year they invited my family and I to
come and spend a week with them.  It’s always an amazing
experience … I truly appreciate their generosity.

We actually left last Friday and headed to their house in California,
and then flew over to the ‘Big Island” on Saturday.  It was fun
travelling with our two boys, and the younger one Sam (who is now over
two and a half years old) really enjoyed the flight.  We arrived
in Kona in the late afternoon, did some grocery shopping, and then got
to The Bay Club at
Waikoloa.  For anyone coming over to stay on this island, this is
a spectacular place.  The Bay Club is just behind the Hilton and Marriott … and the Hilton Waikoloa Village is an astounding resort to see.

We’ve had a blast driving a few minutes up the coast to play in the surf at Hapuna Beach State Park, we played a round of golf at the Kings Course here at Waikoloa, took a submarine ride down in Kona (down to 107 feet!), and hiked around Akaka Falls and the Waipi’o Valley.  Overall … we’ve been doing a lot!

Oh, and of course when I sat down in the The Bay Club condo that we are
staying in and opened my laptop … there was an open access point with
high-speed Internet.  Nice.

We leave tomorrow to head home … back to work.  I actually can’t wait.  I’m really enjoying my new job at Agilix, and can’t wait to dig in more!
