Aloha (goodbye) at least for a week..I'm off to the Island paradise...YAY!!!

I'm leaving on the 3rd so I get to experience the 4th of July fireworks over Waikiki beach...I'm so excited!!
I'm not taking a computer so I'll probably go through PBN withdrawal :(
I'm sure I'll have a lot to catch up on after I return.
#2: Kuuipo (monkeylover) on Jun 28, 2008
Oh No! another monkey lover on the island!
#3: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jun 28, 2008
Hey, I resent that remark!
#4: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jun 28, 2008
J/K, Keilana. I am sure you didn't have any cruel intentions.


Once again, Nancy, a deliciously detailed beauty that I never solved. :-)
#5: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Jun 28, 2008

we have a "who's the queen monkeylover" thing going

I was here first!!

me either, but it came from Gypso so it must be :)

that will be a lot of puzzling to keep me from withdrawal
I've printed several b&w puzzles to take with me :)
(gee hope I got enough)
#9: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jun 29, 2008
Just go slow and take it easy so they don't disappear too quickly. Plus, you are on vacation! Take a break from the stress of pbn. :-)

I dunno, but I am DEFINITELY ready for a vacation! If I could have figured out how to finance it, I woulda been with her! Anyone wanna contribute? ;)
#24: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 3, 2008
I think we all need contributions.
#25: Deana L (ffswife) on Jul 3, 2008
Perhaps so... but me first! :)
#26: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 3, 2008
Ah, come on! Everyone else always gets money before me! Not fair :-( (pout, pout)
#27: Gypso (Gypso) on Jul 3, 2008
I think I'll put little paper umbrellas in all my drinks for the next week!
#28: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 3, 2008
It's just not the same. But, nice though.
#29: Gypso (Gypso) on Jul 3, 2008
I think I'll stop vacuuming for a week and pretend that the grit under my feet is a sandy beach(?).
#30: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 3, 2008
You vacuum for a week??? LOL. I mean, what's a vacuum?
#31: Arduinna (arduinna) on Jul 3, 2008
Welcome Back! I'm assuming you won't read this until you get back! LOL!

I have a 40X50 B&W you should look for if it's off your first page by the time you get back. Sorry I didn't finish it before you left!
#32: Gypso (Gypso) on Jul 3, 2008
Hey! What am I going to tell Naneki in today's journal now?
#33: Arduinna (arduinna) on Jul 3, 2008
Oooh sorry! Tell her "Ardy was selfish and ruined your surprise today."
#34: Gypso (Gypso) on Jul 3, 2008
Cool! Now I have something to write. Thanks! :-)
#35: Jane Doe (telly) on Jul 3, 2008
lol, lol. Sure, DocB, I'm up for a trip to HI. Lovely pic Naneki! I loved my last trip to Oahu! So fun and beautiful there.
Welcome back Nancy! :D
Next time, take me with you! PLEASE! (My voice has a desperate ring to it!)
#36: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Jul 11, 2008
Aloha & mahalo
I'M BACK!!
got home about 2am..& what is the first thing I do in the morning?? CHECK PBN !!
I'll fill you all in later on the wonderful details...


Boy did my bed feel GOOD last night!

#37: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 11, 2008
Woo hoo! Glad you are back. Hope all went well. I want all the juicy details!
#38: Jane Doe (telly) on Jul 12, 2008
Welcome back, hope your trip was wonderful!
#39: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Jul 12, 2008
Oh, we suffered terribly..
lush green foliage everywhere, deep blue skies, crystal clear warm water...I don't know how we survived a whole week over there :)

Every morning before 9:00 & every evening at sunset I was swimming in the ocean with schools of fish (nieboo, are you jealous?), I snorkeled along the beautiful coral reefs, enjoyed the scenic views from the top of the mountains. I went to a luau & had Kahlua Pig and other Hawaiian delicacies.

I had a great visit with my Islander cousins, who taught me some things about my Hawaiian & Portuguese heritage & I got to met people from all over the world..

& WHY I CAME BACK I WILL NEVER KNOW!!!!!
#40: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 12, 2008
One simple answer. Ok, maybe 2.

PBN

and

You would eventually run out of money, right?
#41: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Jul 12, 2008
Very true :)
#42: Arduinna (arduinna) on Jul 12, 2008
They have internet in Hawaii, right? And jobs?
#43: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 12, 2008
Nah. It's like a totally different world. :-)
#44: harris harris (torough4u) on Jul 13, 2008
wow... amazing puzzle.. perfect size and difficulty.. ty
#45: Barb Edwards (babarann) on Jul 13, 2008
Naneki, maybe you sat next to my daughter for the fireworks on the beach, or at the luau, or snorkeling??? She was in Hawaii from July 3 to 7. Sounds like paradise!
#46: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Jul 13, 2008
what is her name & where was she from...I talked to people everywhere I went. (I probably drove them all crazy) :)
#47: Barb Edwards (babarann) on Jul 13, 2008
Kelley is a Penn State student and her bf Jesse lives in Denver. Sound familiar?
#48: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Jul 13, 2008
Denver sounds familiar, what hotel did they stay in? I was in the "Queen Kapioloni" I met a lot of people on the elevator 'cause I was on the 17th floor 7 the elevators were slow!
#49: Barb Edwards (babarann) on Jul 13, 2008
I don't remember the name, but Queen Kapioloni doesn't ring a bell. They sure had a great time! Maybe some day I'll get there.
