Nice!

"You looked at the dogs.."

Looks like you're having a great time so far.

Was that low tide? Looks like the beach needs another healthy helping of sand. Can't wait, when you have time, to read your reflections.......

Pretty much low tide, a little after. We got there today just before low tide and it was pretty much the same, just a little easier to get around the corner from the public beach. Water was almost up to the stairs ..... it feels like they used to bring in a lot of sand to get what they had back then. Going by the seawall ai don't think it's a sea level thing at all.

Beautiful! The water is the most gorgeous color.

Was that a rooster crowing in the background? LOL!

I meant to ask, is that piece of paper inserted in the gate a note from you explaining your connection with COZI TV and this site and the need to have a proper tour of The Estate.........

Took the Magnum PI Experience tour today, very cool! A bit restricted because Obama being in town had brought some restricted fly zones, but a fun ride. Video will need to be edited, but here are shots of the chopper.





And for those willing to sift through my endless pictures, here's the FB album .....

I did mention to COZI I was going, you know in case they wanted anything on location and had a little pull. No such luck.

That sign on the gate is about the security system. As antiquated as a WW II soldier ......

Boy-Howdy! Now THAT is the face of a happy camper!


Great seeing you enjoy your visit to what appears to be, the same level of enthusiasim as I know I would.

Thanks for taking the time to keep us up to date.

Have you attended a luau yet?

Enjoy!

I was able to procure a copy of the security note through Wiki-leaks..........

Hi Conch,

Love the pics and delighted you both had an MPI ball in Oahu.

Conch:

Incredible photos, with excellent attention to detail!! It might have taken you some time to make the pilgrimage, but you certainly did it right! And, I must say, that you obviously married well, as your wife went far beyond what most spouses would.

The lads have changed over the years ....



I wanted to leave something as a momento but couldn't find a nice little Flamingo so, I left a little something from all of us.

In case you didn't notice, I posted the pics out of order. The one with Mrs. Conch and I and the signatures is pre-flight ... I look a lot more nervous there than in the one after!

We did do a Luau, Disney had one on property at Aulani so we planned on that for New Year's Eve. It was fun and Pat Monahan from Train was there with his family as well! (we had better seats )

You are right, Mrs. Conch went over and above on this one. Three visits to the Estate in7 days . . . just when I think I realize how lucky I am she surprises me, I couldn't think of a better way to kick off my 50th year, in the 50th state. Pete Five Oh indeed!

Aside from a few stragglers from other devices I'll need to import, the last batch of pictures were updated to the FB album in case anyone is interested in checking them out.

Thanks again for all the responses, I hope I shared enough for you all to get a feel for what it was like!

Thanks again for all the updates.

Am going to check out each and every pic you put on FB.

Hope you are relaxing and at the limit of your capacity to enjoy and experience.

FANtastic pictures on your FB page!

Don't have to tell you how lucky you are to have a partner that stands beside you, and enjoys the same things as you do, you cannot put a value on that, it's priceless, in the true sense of the word.

You guys are just having a grand time, from the looks of it...very happy for you.

You did it "right". You planned, you saved, you mapped out a course, talked to people who had gone before you, did everything just the way it should be done. You should both be proud of yourselves on top of being at the pinnacle of enjoyment. Pretty sure I would be, were I in your position!

Good on you both!

Keep up the fun, and stay safe & happy.

Gettin a little "chilly" back here in the east......

Enjoy every moment!
