mahalo neui loa
here are the pictures of whatever amount becuase (im too lazy) and i'm obviously not going to post all 292 or something like that
these are the kiddos of my family. top left to right: danny (10), timmy(12), lesley (16) --bottom left to right: meghen (26), ev (26, brother in law,married to meg), julia (20), peter (18), me(14)
Geneva Version: monkeys, tigers, swimmer--oldest?organized?(i still dont know if we have one for her), no underwear, mohawks, elefant
and we all stayed here:
my uncles house in honluloa-kailua-kona, hawaii, up in the mountian
i took that on the shitty 5 hour flight over the pacific (after a 3 hour flight and a 3 hour layover in la)
a bad picture of the very end of the sunset and a little bit of kona (of which my uncle's front porch views to)
and again, but a bit earlier
his heads in the clouds (ha, ha)
one day, we visited this store (a bit off the coast and away from the main drag, so it was two tiems more unusual to have met...
MORGAN SPURLOCK yup, i met him, and it was weird because you feel like his friend because you've watched him in a movie (and seen his ass) but you really area total stranger. it was fun
and then two days later, we saw him again at hapuna beach (out side of kona) with his girlfriend and he remembered peters name, and peter gave him credit for that
danny and timmy on a wall in front of the cruise ship that was visiting and behind the kona hotel restuarant on the main drag (no, that was not a specific location)
danny.
some bananas in my uncles front yard, hes got banana, papaya, coconut and mango trees everywhere
when you get to the bottom o the mountain
in the car on our drive-around-the-island-in-one-day trip which was extremely fun at points and extremely boring and crappy at others
a real sign inside the volcano muesem. lesley and i found it hilarious.
julia and lesley posing in front of the volcano crater/hole thing..i just sort of took pictures of it without really paying attention that it was pointless. (it was the hole where lava comes out?) i think so, well...very safe if you ask me
we were in hilo(big city on opposite side of big island from kona) on this whole day trip thing and it was raining.
we were up on the mountain on the south side (i think?) of the island at the observatory that night and they really did have this sign up. supposedly theres invisible cows. hawaii has strange signs..sexy fruit flies..invisible cows..donkey XING...falling branches!...
lizard on leaf.
would you like to hear about our soup of the day? (sorry , lizard on leaf just sounded funny.)
it wont let me put them side by side
timmy and danny were in the back seat fighting. well, timmy being an idiot and getting danny mad because hes stubborn.
well, a big thing right behind the lobby at the hilton, by their salt water lake. we 'snuck in' (my mom was nervous) but you just drive in and you're good. lesley and i's life goal is to stay there sometime.
PArt of their pool right on the coast, right before you walk over it on this:
they had funny random statues everywhere:
and one with a mermaid/horse, and a bunch of pigs or rats or lions in armor. and they had this cool one right by the fake kiddie wading beach pool with awe-some pebble sand that lesley and i are working on convincing are parents of getting a pool like it.
they also have a total-rip-off-dolphin-veiwing-they-make-lots-of-money-diving-experience-beach-pool-thing. and theres one of the dolphins. and its right next to the rip-off restuarant! unbelievable!
you know the long road that the iron man guys ride their bikes on? and its in the gatorade commercial? well, theres lava everywhere, and tons of people use white rocks and coral to write stuff and people see them. we drove that road alot, and we stopped and totally ruined some people long names and did this (sorry kelle and kamele!) peter was riding bike and hte anarchist symbol where he was
this is my uncles cat, tiger. shes 17 and she would never lay on my stomach or let me pet her, but then i took this pictuer and flashed this in her eyes and somehow after that she was rubbing up against me. and it was the last day. stupid cute cat.
julia hugging the donkey. there were a few of these stores around on the main drag, called 'donkey balls' and we finally found out that they sell chocolate covered macadamia nuts and candy.
another flower in my uncles yard.
my uncles opening a coconut with one of his machetes
timmy right on the coast near the city of refuge
me closer to the water but the same place.
i may look naked, but im not.
peter and lesley were most eatenby on the mosquitoes(my uncles house isnt the most closed in place) and hes covering himself from them. he even made up a song about it.
timmy and i
timmy was acting like he could play the ukelele well.
at first julia said we were all hula dancers. but then she ended up deciding that her and lesley were hula dancers and i was getting wasted. (i was really coraperating..)
hang loose
