Aloha from Hawaii !!!!!!

After two weeks in Minnesota I've now changed climates entirely. I'm in Hawaii!!

I've come here to visit Britt. For those who don't know, we grew up together in Minnesota and spent many good hours splashing around in the St. Croix River and riding our bikes to Afton. Now she's working on her doctorate in oceanography here at the University of Hawaii. After nearly four years we finally get to spend some quality time together.

Here are some pictures:

Britt, taking me around for a first tour of Oahu.

MMMMMmmmmm ..... land of good sushi! Try the spicy tuna.

Sunset Beach, one of 10,000,000 incredible surf beaches on Oahu.

Breakfast this morning with Britt and her current roommate Dan. Great kitchen!

Salut Hibou! I am thinking of you!
