So now it was time to move to our Worldmark timeshare part of the holiday ( only cos we had to!). We were met by very friendly staff and an apartment that had not been cleaned properly to quote Robin, gotta love that resort experience!. Anyway with a promise to clean it the next day we settled in. Rob was very happy because of the dirty room he got free internet! He was Haaaapy. The time in Kona was spent very lazily, eating icecream, shopping, checking out local places.... oh and did I say eating? Wherever we went if we could get Hawaiian Pork or the fresh local fish we did...
One night Robin and I walked to the beach ( rocks ) just across from our apartment to watch the sunset. Unfortunately couldn't take Mum with us as it was too unsteady underfoot. This was the view....

| There were hundreds of these little crabs on the rocks |
On one of the other nights we walked ( seemed like miles) to the local Bar on the beach, a place that holds fond memories sharing coffee with the Napa Galz on our last visit here. We had a nice refreshing drink and toasted their good health...

| Guinness and a Pina Colada |

| Cheers everyone! |

The flowers everywhere have been beautiful, I dont know if its because I can take the time to appreciate them more while being on holiday but the colours are stunning... The trade winds were doing their thing so probably not quite in focus..
I lurve lurve the flowers...
Well still some catching up to do... but there's a little bit more for you all...
