The Big Island - Jan30

Today was our last full day on the Big Island. Tomorrow we fly to Maui for the second leg of our vacation. We spent the morning snorkling at a nearby beach, and in the afternoon we went to Hapuna beach for some boogie boarding.

This is the beach where we went snorkling.

There are some very large bugs flying around our patio. I finally was able to get picture of one sitting.  It's about the size of a large Bumblebee.

Hapuna beach, where we spent our last afternoon boogie boarding. I should clarify that Heather & Bern braved the waters, Laela and I sat on the beach.  There was a bank of clouds obscuring the sun, and in combination with the ocean breeze, made it less than appealing to get wet. Heather and Bern reported back that it really wasn't that bad, once you got used to it.
