I plan to post as regularly as off the grid, farm life will allow. So I may be here at odd times. But this place is so very special, I can't wait to share our adventures here. In the meantime, we are still battling jet lag. Zach and I are struggling to sort out night...
(we sleep in the "shed". basically the barn where dad keeps his tools and tractor. after creature close encounters of visits past, we requested a net for our bed this time since it will be a long visit and gecko eggs hatching in my hair and spiders on my toes are not high on my list of things to do)
from day...
(papaya picked this morning by Zach with bread made by grandma smeared with liliquoi butter (passion fruit) picked from their farm and made by grandma. oh and don't forget the Kona coffee)

I hope that you have a wonderful time in Hawaii! Can't wait to see more posts. :)
What a wonderful opportunity! It's nice to have relatives who live in paradise.
One of the few things I do NOT miss from Florida is lizards/spiders in my bed or snakes in my house. One of the things I love about Ireland -- no snakes!
Delighted to see you have arrived happy and carefree in paradise. We will miss you but do our best to amuse ourselves with whatever winter pleasures we can search out while you are basking in the tropics. Next week, we meet our sheep that's a nice warm and woolly activity for the winter.
Wow. WOW! That sounds amazing. Love the photos. Enjoy your time away. I can't wait to read about it.
Wow! HAve a great time. What a great place to visit and how nice for zach to be with his grandparents!! Fresh picked papaya...delish!

Enjoy the sun and your family sweetie - so glad you made it there!
We're unplugged for the next week or so too - as we sail down outside of the Baja. Going to try using the SSB to send the odd blog post, so we'll see if that works.
Enjoy yourself with all that fresh fruit and wonderful grandparent time. :) I'm only a wee bit jealous.
Have a grand time- it sure sounds like paradise!!
How lovely! Hawaii (the island itself, as well as the Hawaiian Islands as a group) is such a magical and beautiful place. We went to Maui on our babymoon three years ago and enjoyed every second.
I'm jealous of that fresh tropical fruit...
Would Z's Grandma share the liliquoi butter recipe? I want to make it when we go to Costa Rica to see daughter Ginna. Thanks.
Looks amazing!
And good to hear you arrived safely...I'm emailing you about the WIM...THANK you again!!!
SO happy.
