In April we embarked on a trip to the island of Hawaii. Besides layovers and conference trips, it was our first vacation in Hawaii. I learned for myself that commodities in Hawaii are exquisitely expensive and that wild chickens roam freely on the island near Laie. Our friend, Paul Hurst, gave us a tour of BYU Hawaii. During our trip we met our good friends, the Hurst's, the Chou's, Laie Point was a beautiful serene place to view the ocean. Megan basked in the scene at Hukilau Beach. Another highlight of our trip was the Polynesian Cultural Center. We enjoyed a nice Sunday night dinner and Family Home Evening at the home of Ban Phung. We stayed at the home of Han and Huwei Lin our last night in Hawaii. So much fun packed in to one week.
