Big Island - Day 7 - Goodbye & Hello

We tried to make the most of our half day before our flight left: my parents on a date in Kona town and Kyle snorkeling. Not wanting to get too sandy or dirty, the kids and I found a great play area. As you may have learned by now, swings are so rare here, the kids get SUPER excited when they see them!
Kona turned the old airport into a huge park with a sports complex, nature trails and a playground, all on the shoreline. The old runway makes a great parking lot, and it was filled with some giant motorcycle convention (party, gang?) so the kids loved watching all the different types of bikes rumble by.

Luke has a Hawaiian doppelganger! When you have matching pirate shirts, you have to be friends for the day :)
We had a great time on the Big Island!

  1. Looks like they had fun! It's always good to find "friends" at the playground.
