I went to Hawaii for 6 days....

So every year for the past 5 yrs, I was one of the lucky ones that got to join a girls group of my cousins, for a annual girls weekend. So one year we were in San Jose at cousin Michelle's house, one year at cousin Mary's house in Fountain Hills, AZ "Phoenix", one year here in Dallas when I hosted it, then last year back in San Jose at "sister" Nancy's house (very good friends with the cousins)and then this year, one of Nancy's good friends that joined us for a day last year, offered her place in Hawaii this year. So of course we had to take advantage of such a wonderful and generous offer, and off we flew on the 11th of Feb. for 6 days...it was a glorious week there. She lived up in the mountains in Wiamea but it was only 20 -30 minutes back down to the beachs. We had lots of beach time, shopping time, sightseeing time and of course eating and drinking times...all in those 6 days. So I am sharing with you a couple pictures that were taken along the way. The one of us having a steam bath was over on the east side of the island near the active volcano...but the funny part of that picture is it reminds me of the times my kids were little and we watched Sesame Street..and they sang that song....Which one of these is not like the others.....

well, guess who's always "hot"....and that steam melted us and soaked us in minutes...

The flowers were just shots I took when I thought it was so beautiful...and of course our group..

What a great time we had, and the memories will be wonderful....Thanks Grace.
