Family Vacation Hawaiian Style







I felt the rumble and vibration of the plane's engines as it descended through the light grey clouds. Lowering its landing gears,as it took a brief glance out the window which brought much pleasure. Our arrival to Kona Island,Hawaii was as if we landing in paradise. Taking that first step off the plane I heard a most relaxing sound. A delightful sound of the ocean waves crashing against the rocks. Looking out towards the blue sky and the clear blue water as if there was no division between the two.

While we were driving around we could see a souvenir shop on each corner. Everyone was welcomed with "Aloha" which means "Hello" as you entered. It gave you a pleasantly warm,fuzzy feeling inside. All the locals were in shorts and tank tops to take in the sun. Even the children were playing in the sand or surfing the waves. It was as if there were no worries and everyone was stress free.


A light breeze moved the branches of the palm trees and allowed the sun light to illuminate the island. Not to forget the sand softly beneath my feet as we took our walks in the sunsets. Watching the sun slowly disappearing you could feel the breeze cool the air with a light mist. Heading back to the hotel,you would see tourist wearing their Hawaiian print clothing. Many were excited to experience the extravagant Hawaiian dancers. To see the mid-dress outfit's the dancers were wearing with their solid fit bodies. The dance with fire provided an excellent show to the public.

Getting ready to eat was like a picture you saw in a magazine. Food was displayed in such a passionate manner. The pork was cooked to perfection in a pit covered with dirt all day for all the guests. When serving the pork, it had honey glaze that just made your mouth water. The pork melted in your mouth with each bite,which taste was like sweet candy with the stomach asking for more. The beverages were refreshingly cold and made from all the fruits of the island. Pineapple.s were golden and extremely juicy, perfect to make smoothies. Each drink decorated with freshly slice bright red strawberries, sliced golden yellow pineapples,and mini umbrellas.
With the next morning upon us was a beautiful sight of the orange-red sunrise. Looking out on the balcony, I smelled a delightfully pleasant fragrance coming from the flowers that surrounded the island. My mind was taking in the moments as it was filing the beauty that lay right there in front of my eyes. It was colorful as if the rainbow was all around. Our unforgettable moments made us realize we were in Kona, Hawaii.
