Kona Temple Trip

After 2 hours of sleep, Pocahontas and I set off to the buses.

It was 2:40 am. No one should ever have to wake up at this time. Don't get me wrong, I have definately been awake at 2:40 before. Its just that those times, it was because I hadn't been to bed. This time it was because I had been to bed and then rudely awakened by my alarm clock.

We were sure we looked ridiculous walking down the street in the middle of the night in our church clothes.

We got to Kona about 6 am and got on another bus to the temple. After our assigned time to go into the temple ended at 8:30 am, we had nothing to do until we left to go back to the airport at 3:30.

Boredom ensued.

Pocahontas took pictures of the beautiful orchids

And tried to catch geckos. They were too fast for her. Even with the lure of wheat thins and candy.

Keli'i and Pocahontas

This picture describes the day the Pocahontas and MM had with each other. They bugged one another every chance they got. I almost lost it on them. Ming and Tialei snacking in the background.

We were soooooo tired, but it was worth it.
