We vacationed to Hawaii at the end of November to spend time with Eric’s family for a very relaxing post Thanksgiving and pre Christmas get-away/family-time visit. 

Here are some highlights. 

Please enjoy Eric’s video of our trip. You should watch it for the shots of sperm whales & the horse–just saying. Also one amazing dive, we will always remember. 
It was all really beautiful. I wish I was feeling better while we were there. (See Crohn’s post for info on that.)
