The fam came in today, we had a nice lunch and hung out at my apartment. They're so great. Tomorrow, my slightly pale ass is going to be on a beach in Maui. We (myself, mom, dad, brother and cousin) are staying in a condo rather than a hotel and I'm bringing my medium format camera. Expect (if i can wield it right) some neat pictures of volcano walks or whatever catches my eye. I'll post some digital pictures as well. I have never had Hawaii on my radar but now that I'm going I'm really excited. I'm sure it will evoke some of the primal responses I got from New Zealand when I went. That new land landscape thing. Well, I'll try to post while there but I might be too busy drinking Pina Coladas and getting sun cancer.
