Hawaii May '09

At BYU Hawaii where we visited with Sylvia and Adney Adam - We met them last year at the Polynesian Cultural Center where Sylvia was our tour guide for the day and Adney was a performer in the show.

Almost Heaven

Our favorite place in Hawaii is not on the exotic islands of Maui, Kauia, or the Big Island, but on the Western shore of Oahu at the JW Marriott Ihilani at Ko Olina. This is the view from our room on our recent trip.

Just down the road from Ko Olina is Makaha, which was the subject of the Iz musical rendition of Country Roads. You can view and hear his rendition, Hawaiian style on You Tube as follows:

It's worth listening to -
