Happy Birthday, Char!
It's Sunday, Jan. 22, our first full day in Hawaii AND our first attempt at blogging. We woke up before dawn, made some French Roast Coffee (Lion brand) and settled on our lanai to watch the sun rise. As Dan was asking, which direction are the whales this time of year, we saw one breaching!
We enjoyed our Taro waffles here in the condo. You may wonder, what sort of vacation rental condo provides a waffle iron? We'll tell you tomorrow. They were succulent with butter and guava jam.
Then we went to church, at St. William's (which Dan refers to as St. Willy's) in Hanalei. We were the first ones there, and the parking lot usher said, "First ones in, first ones out." Dan liked that idea, but it was a lie. We had to merge as much as the rest of the other haoles. The highlight of chuch was Amazing Grace played on the bagpipes by a young member of the U.S. Marine Corps, who is going to Iraq soon. Please keep him in your prayers.
After church, we came home, Susan painted, Dan watched the Seahawks win, we went to the pool, swam a few laps (Susan), and came back to read and paint and have happy hour and guac and start thinking about dinner.
Which was good. It looked like this:
It's time to watch Desperate Houswives. Here are a few other photos we took today, including Susan's painting of the shower curtain.
We'll post again. Possibly more tomorrow, including Susan's Yoga Pose of the Day!
Aloha,
Susan and Dan

Well that was fun, now I have to get to work or something. Rain is not so bad there, I could use a little sunshine with the rain. Next week Scooter and Van will be here so that will brighten things up. Your pictures and paintings are beautiful. Take care Edith
Hey guys,
Looks like a good time. Dan you look so happy in the water and Susan your paintings are nothing short of amazing. So brief yet so powerfull, they are truly poetic. Later,
Ryan
