Tre and Belle at sunset--Maui 2008
It's less than 2 weeks away....9 days to be exact. I'm SO excited! We've put off taking big vacations for over 2 years and are now ready to relax, renew, regenerate. Hawaii here we come! We are going to the Big Island with the kids this time. I love all the islands. Kauai is my all time favorite, Maui is Jeremy's favorite, but the kids wanted to see a real live volcano so we decided on the Big Island. Here are some of the things I researched online and want to do once we get there:- Pana'ewa Rainforest Zoo--best of all its free and they have a white tiger
- Free dolphin show at Hilton Waikaloa Village's Dolphin Quest
- Hapuna Beach--this is the best rated beach on the Big Island
- Volcano National Park
- Punalu'u Beach Park--it is a black sand beach and a popular home to sea turtles that boasts excellent swimming and snorkeling
- Cliff jumping at South Point (I've read there are 15-50 foot cliffs above gorgeous clear ocean water and is a popular jump site)
- Kealakekua Bay--they say pods of dolphins swim in this bay early in the morning and you can swim along side of them as long as you are courteous and respectful
- Kayaking--we plan to rent kayaks to take to Captain Cook (a popular snorkel site) and we may even check out the Sea Caves as well

I'm SO jealous! You guys are going to have a great time. It is wonderful that you are taking the kids again. Most kids their ages have never been to Hawaii, let alone twice. So lucky. Enjoy your vacation!
So fun. We went to Maui a couple years ago and didn't do any of those things.
hmmm, guess we need to go back!! SMILE
Im excited for you!!!! it all sounds so great! I cant wait to see pics. And the best part is your kids are the perfect age to take them on vacations. I cant wait till we are at that point in life :)
