What? Us stay at our hotel? Never! Off we went for a hike. Remember that scenic drive Mom and Dad took while I was sleeping on Day 2?
We walked down to the secluded beach at the bottom of the trail. We couldn't go further because you had to pay to use the trails in the botanical gardens and we didn't think the view would change from there.
My favorite hiking pasttime--picking up sticks! I'm going to be really good at trail maintenance when I get older.
Not a swimming beach (tough waves, big boulders), but still fun. Plus, there was a little stream flowing into the ocean, and Mom and Dad let me throw rocks into it instead of getting too close to the crashing waves.
I also threw rocks on the beach. What a nice last day in Hawaii. After dinner at our favorite sushi restaurant (had dinner there 3 of our 5 nights in Hilo), we headed to the airport, a little sadness in the air, but refreshed from a terrific trip. Mom and Dad are really proud of how well I travelled. They can't wait to take me on our next trip!

Too bad you had to come home. We look forward to visiting you (several times) when you live in Hawaii some day!
Actually, I'm glad you came home because you live a LOT closer now and there are definitely positives to that! We had a fun weekend with you!
Evan,
I'm sure leaving Hawaii was sad. You got some great pictures of the scenery and I especially like the one of your Mom with the flower in her hair. I can't wait to see all the pictures this weekend!
Love, Oma
