Well, I made it back home safe and sound. I hated to leave but it sure was good to sleep in my own bed last night! I almost slept around the clock last night! I only slept about an 1 1/2 hours total on the plane coming home. Sonny picked me up at the airport and we went to breakfast. After a quick stop at the grocery store, I unpacked and took a nap for a couple of hours. That helped me to stay awake until about 10 pm when I couldn't hold my eyes open any longer! I showered and went to bed about 10:30 and woke up at 9:30 this morning. Surprisingly, it didn't take me long for my body to adjust to the time difference when I was in Hawaii. Let's see if the same is true for being back home. I'll be getting ready for the Quarterly that Debbie, Marianne and I are hosting next week. I did all my swaps before I left so just need to concentrate on getting everything ready.
I downloaded my photos to my computer this morning so I have a few more to share. Ashley and I went snorkeling and kayaking last week. I didn't do so good with the snorkeling. I have done it before and really enjoyed it but the water and currents were too rough due to the tropical storms. I ended up losing my snorkel tube when the waves knocked me down. Ashley was able to get out further and had a good time looking at the turtles and fish. The kayaking turned out much better. We rented the kayak for two hours because we thought it would take us an hour to figure it out but it didn't. We ended up kayaking for about an hour until my back was killing me from sitting in the seat with no support. We thought our arms would be sore from paddling but they weren't. This time, I didn't lose any of the equipment but Ashley broke one of the oars! We were bringing the kayak in and trying to ride the waves in until a big one knocked the kayak over and dumped both of us in the water snapping her oar in half! It was a lot of fun! We are going to try and get Sonny to join us in December.
I'm going to miss seeing these beauties everywhere!
I didn't do it this time!

This is where the kiss scene of From Here to Eternity was filmed.
