It’s 9:20 p.m. as I write this. I’ve made it through the day with perfect adherence to the food plan as I designed it first thing this morning. Booyah! Now I just need to do it for a day tomorrow! I wish I could do a three day detox-cleanse this weekend but I have two different sets of friends in town and agreed weeks ago to have dinner out two nights. Oh well. I can do restaurants and still stick to the plan, which is just what I will do.I’m not quite as tired today. I guess my brain just has to make up one time zone. Yay! It’s been truly rough at work because I needed to concentrate. Catching up on work when one has been away is a challenge on the best of days. Doing it with a brain that refuses to fire on all cylinders is a pain in the ass. I managed, but will be happy to have the weekend again after tomorrow.
I’ve been going through photos for a couple of hours tonight and I’m still not done! I’m not even resizing every single shot of the almost 400 that I took, but this still takes time. I’m enjoying the process, however, because I so loved everything that I saw.
I promised to post a few photos tonight. Sad to say that I do not have one of me ziplining. My friend has it on her camera. Eventually we’re sending each other all of our photos on flash drives. In the meantime, I asked her to please email me just one of my ziplining in action so perhaps I’ll have that tomorrow.
Meanwhile here are a couple of whale shots, some scenery, and a couple pictures of the view from the platforms 65-80 feet in the trees. I don’t quite have the hang of positioning photos in my blog posts, but I don’t think you’ll care. Enjoy!
On the way to Waimea Canyon.
View from amid the trees.
This whale breached about 60 yards off the stern of the snorkeling boat.
Yes, we climbed those bridges high up in the trees.
See the two different sizes of pectoral flippers? That’s a mom and her calf.
Overlooking a pretty bay after the crater hike.

Fantastic photos!
Wow so beautiful..you and the scenery both.
Gorgeous! Hawaii is on my bucket list and these pictures and your descriptions just reinforce that.
Great photos. So glad you had a good time. I have to agree with Skye, you do look vibrant smiling in pink.
Lovely pictures! I especially like the whales, but I’m very taken with the one of you in your pink shirt. You look so vibrant!
Good for you for sticking to your plan. I hope you can get lots of rest this weekend.
