And our guests are...

Well our newest guests arrived today: Dave (my brother), Laura and Elijah Gutierrez! They had a really good flight and arrived a little early. We greeted them with leis and big hugs and smiles.

From the airport we drove to Pali Lookout. The view was amazing even though it was pretty breezy. And there were a lot of bees. There has always been a signs warning of us bees but in the 2 years we have been here we have never seen a bee. Jacob got stung on his cheek.

While we were enjoying the beautiful view I was telling Laura how Japanese tourist love taking pictures of the boys and children who look "Western". As soon as I got done a group of Japanese students came over and wanted to take pictures with us and they went nuts over Elijah-they were squealing and trying to touch him.

This afternoon we relaxed and had a yummy dinner of BBQ chicken, rice-a-roni and fresh pineapple. Tonight the cousins took a bath together and are having fun getting to know each other again. Elijah likes to watch the boys and see what they are up to. Our adventures continue tomorrow...

How fun! Correct me if I am wrong, but hasn't Jacob been stung by bugs and jelly fish way too often? poor guy! They smelled the sweetness right away!
