Aloha! We are slowly acclimating to the time change and atmospheric changes in our surroundings! Aloha spirit is everywhere, and we have swum and snorkeled in the ocean on the North side of Hawaii at the start of the Napali coast, eaten some fantastic ahi, enjoyed the company of Myles and Ann, our friends from Northfield. Today we toured one of National Geographic's 50 must-see destinations (or so we were told and can believe), Allerton Garden, 110 acres of tropical botanical gardens, and the place where they found the dinosaur eggs in Jurassic Park.
