more cruise more love



 

more cursin more details

Part two of our Hawaiian cruise from March 16 -March 31 Beginning each day together

At the PCC Craig and I had the chance to solo  in two of the villages. Craig got up and did some dning. Mine was easier.  although I could have danced and wold have, after taking all the classess from Dorthy  Ae. All I had to do was drink from the coconut shell and act goffy. EASY!  was givin the head drress and the coconut!

here is Craig and I with our person tour station  and we really did feel the Island loveguide, As I stated before , it easy was a perfect day and we got treated royally. Our seats were saved at every 

In front of the temmple just before sunset with many of our group/ Seeing the temples all over the world is a goal that Jim and I hae always had

we hiked up to the Kona temple on Saturday and tehn went down bacck to the beach where I swim in the ocean. After going out to the middle of the bay where the water polo players set up their goal, as I was swimming back I go suck ( although I didnt know it) in a rip and had to be pulled out by one of the players! It made for an exciting swim!

Church at the Kona temple ward was the high light and another sasbbath where we can feel GOd live while traveling

Here is the youong man headed off to his mission with the Island tradition of placing love, laies, ties over his neck and giving him one last hug of incouragement. We felt the love also and will always feel it.

Mother and son love

My sibling cruise HAWAII

We spurged an bought the fabulous tour of the PCC at Laie Hawaii.  Here we are with lit Bro Craig and Jill and   Sis Terry and Doug and Tucker brothers two. The whole day was filled with the flavors of each Polensian Culture ending with the food and show which was well worth the money. It tells me that our dad never did give us the private full tour of the center.Jim and  I hadd visited a feew years earlier but stayed in an air  b&b and our good friends the stephensens and Karen and Bill were serving their mission at that time. Going as tourist and spending the big bucks was worth it

I love the formal dinning. Some one else doing the work!

our first Sunday was  St Patricks day so after church in our cabin with mingled with the rest of the lepricons

while the men read Terry and I danced

until someone pulled Jim up  to learn the hula

My favorite is all the shows, from comedy, to Elton John and ELvis impersonators to live musical productions

we floated on the boat to and fomr Hawaii

the food yummm

Craig and I were pulled out of the crowd for two different island, Hopefully someone got a photo of me.. this blog is just the start of our fun adventure


Laie temple

feasting at PCC

AND MY FAV  Kona temple



the best church day evee. we got to hear a missionary farewell and experience the tradition of putting Lais around the missionary before he leaves. It was most inspiring and my  favorite spirutual moment

excitment when we witness a helicopter saving one of our cruisers that needed extra medical care in Sab Diego

no one really knew how sick I was feeling this night, thus the scarf and sweater
