The time that I still cannot pronunce "Gong Gong" 公公

Isaac cannot pronounce 公公... And he refers him as "dark-dark", which is the way 公公 plays with him

Big Island Day 4 - Helicopter ride and Lili'uokalani Garden

公公婆婆 signed up for a helicopter ride to see the Volcano National Park. We would have driven to the Volcano, but Mom was pregnant and Isaac was too little for that. So 公公婆婆 took a helicopter ride. While they were taking the ride, we visited Lili'uokalani Garden on Bayan Drive.

Big Island Day 4 at Hilo Farmer market

We visited Farmers Market in Hilo. The papaya there were the cheapest and freshest in the world (We couldn't find a papaya tastes half as good when we came back to LA). For the next few days, we ate so many papayas, and had so many papaya drinks.

I sat with grandparents in the back

Walking in Downtown of Hilo

The papaya are so big and cheap!!

Our Condo in Big Island

Our condo in Outrigger Fairways Villas was a spacious 2-bedroom unit. It comes with full kitchen, and large bedrooms and bathrooms. The balcony had a good view overlooking the golf course. In the resort, there was a shared BBQ area, and we BBQ our food every evening. The pool was a little bit small, but it was nice for small children. The resort was conveniently located right next to King's Shops and Queens Marketplace. It was also walking distance to nearby Mariott Waikoloa Beach and the A-Bay (Anaehoomalu Bay).

Isaac was so tired when we arrived the first night!

Big Island Day3 PM Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park

We visited Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park, which was also called 'place of refuge', when ancient people broke tabu, they could come here to seek refuge. The place was good to see the ancient Hawaiian culture. It was also a good place to see sea turtles!
