Dear Family:

I expected a little let-down after arriving home and I'm fighting it with being grateful that we could have some special family time!!

For the parents..Charis has lots of pics on her facebook...so you can check that out.

Not sure if I can pick one favorite day but snorkeling inside this bay comes pretty close--WE were upclose and personal with so many types of fish. On our last day saw some huge jacks.

Will upload more pics later (charis has them on her computer)--for now just sharing that our family time, meal sharing, talking time, getting to know Dace, hiking, touring, experiencing the culture, walking the beach, experiencing the shark cage, getting seasick, standing under a waterfall, mud, thinking about Pearl Harbor and history, listening to music by military bands, 12 inches of rain in one day, kayaking in the backyard (our house overlooked the bay) and getting turned around not lost on the island left us with many memories.
