Our Adventure Begins...

Today makes seven days in Hawai'i and we're excited about being here. The weather is quite different compared to Seattle although both places are almost equally beautiful. It's a warm 89 degrees here today but the breeze from the ocean makes it feel like 80 or so...it's nice but the verdict is still out as to whether the "great" weather will get a little old after a while here...the kids are enjoying it and Larry took them out to the pool the other day to get their first true breath of relaxation in the Hawaiian air.



I opted for reading on the inside and some peace and quiet in the room. We are living at the Naval Lodge on Ford Island (Pearl Harbor) right now in about 500 sq. ft. of living space! (Probably not even that much...)! So, the search continues and prayers are lifted daily for a home for the Buycks Clan!

This is the house that we looked at today...I absolutely loved it inside and out...plenty of room in the back for the kids to play and the neighborhood is full of parks, military families and kiddos...the owners were really nice too!

We don't know too much about the island of Oahu just yet but we have found that there is a TON of culture here...Samoan, Polynesian, Micronesian, Asian...you name it! It's so great to see such a culmination of ethnic groups here and so many different experiences to be had.
