Atlantis Submarine / Great Waikoloa Food & Wine Festival / Marriott - Part 1

What a wonderful, relaxing weekend!! We officially celebrated Kawena's birthday the weekend after, with a "staycation". These types of "home" vacations are becoming a lot more common with the prices of gas and airfare on the rise.

The trip began with an excursion out to Atlantis Submarine in Kona. We don't usually experience a lot of the "touristy" things on the Island since we live here, but decided we will start doing so, to expose our children to the land and the wonders of our Island.

Getting ready for the boat ride out to the Submarine.

There it is!!!

Shaka! Don't know what Kawena was doing in this one.... ;-)

100 feet and counting!

Mmmmm...a real life picture of sashimi.

Sunken ship.

Sunken ship. Interesting story about this one - the guide told us that fish that settle here never leave.

Going up!

And we're done. What an amazing color of blue, huh?

***I have a family pic in digital form that I will add to this post shortly.

  1. The look on Kawena's face is hilarious--I wonder what she was looking at?
