Well we are back home and at our second day of work since our vacation. As our luggage (including our bikes, toiletries and house keys) didn’t arrive until 3pm yesterday we haven’t unpacked yet. (Did I ever mention I hate American Airlines?)
We will try to get more pictures posted to the website soon - we looked at them for the first time with my mom and Dave on Tuesday night. There are some good ones - but of course nothing as amazing as being there.
It is good to be back home, we just wish we weren’t at work yet, as the red-eye and the jetlag is still impacting both of us…
Maia is missed us, but has adapted to being back at home well. She gives us seemingly random hugs, but we like it — a lot. We really started to miss her the last couple days when we were bored in Waikiki and traveling home.
Thank you to everyone for reading our travelog - I hope that it provided some amusement to you while we were gone.
Next big trip - cycling in Maine…

Last night we again visited Hulagirl Coffee for icecream minutes before closing and were rewarded for our procrastination by receiving VERY generous ‘’single scoop” portions of local Tropical Dreams icecream.
Now we are getting breakfast at Aloha Angel Cafe were we are enjoying the company of friendly gekkos and generous portions.

A group of students from Oklahoma State University sent a Pentax DSLR to 104,000 ft via a sounding balloon and took pictures along the way. This pic is from the peak of the flight - look at their entire project’s pictures - it’s amazing.
By the way, since everyone is waiting with baited breath,
No we don’t have a new baby yet, and yes we’ll make sure to let everyone know when we do.
The below article from the New Yort Times was posted on JimBurkee.com (running for 5th District of the US House) this evening and all I can say in response is ‘Hell yeah.’
I agree with everything written in this article. There is no debate about global warming but as there is a realization that our problem [...]
