Our Honeymoon on the Big Island of Hawaii
(continued)
Some of our activities on the Big Island:
Golf
putting course by the ocean
Manicure
& Pedicure at the Kohala Spa
Kona
Luau with Island Breeze
Helicopter
ride with Blue Hawaiian
This was the most interesting putting course that we every played.
It consists of eighteen holes by the ocean with slim authentic golf greens.
It is much quicker than a regular game of golf and we had a lot of fun
playing, even in our wet swim suits. Part of the course could be
seen below our fourth-floor balcony.
Nothing soothes a woman's soul like a good manicure and pedicure at the
Kohala Spa. They not only pampered Marsha, but they gave
Doug the seat of honor in a massage chair as he read a book and waited
for his bride.
King Kamehameha's Luau is one of the oldest Luaus on the Island.
This outstanding luau takes place at the Kona Beach Hotel in
the city of Kona (where the famous coffee is grown). For
us, it was the most meaningful because of the Christian influence
of the participants
(Island Breeze).
Some friends of ours who used to perform in this luau recommended it to
us and we were not disappointed. We attended one luau on each island.
This was our second luau and the only one where they chanted out to
the one true God. It was not just professionally done, it was also
very inspirational and uplifting!
One of the most exciting days of our vacation was taking the deluxe Blue
Hawaiian helicopter tour of the Big Island, focusing on the active
volcanoes on one side of the island and the lush greenery surrounding
the waterfalls on the other side. Doug was exhilarated and Marsha
was nauseated as the helicopter circled at all angles to focus on the views
of the red lava and smoke resulting from the lava entering the ocean.
