Activities for Today….

Hawaii2011-0873Before we left O’ahu, we scheduled another helicopter flight with Paradise Helicopters for the big island today. We have to check in back at the Kona Airport Helipad @ 10:15am for an 11am departure.
This flight is their “Hawaii Experience” tour, and lasts about 2 hours. Details can be found here: http://paradisecopters.com/tourInfo.php?TourNo=HE
Since we flew with then on O’ahu, we got 20% off on this flight, an offer we couldn’t refuse 🙂
We don’t know what will follow the flight… Anyone following our potential itinerary as posted before departure knows that has been tossed long ago, and we are just “winging it” and having a good time!!

Dinner @ Bubba Gump Shrimp Company

Hawaii 2011 0801Good food, reasonable prices, huge servings and great views for dinner.
However, still no sunset. Heavy dark clouds moved onto the western horizon and obscured the setting sun one more time. This makes eight nights in Hawaii without a sunset into the sea….

Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort

Hawaii2011-0704Settled in for 5 nights here. Bigger than Turtle Bay Resort, but smaller than the Hilton Waikoloa Village up north of the airport. This is the panoramic view off our balcony, looking northwest.
