The "Painted Church"

Overlooking South Point, no rental cars beyond this point! and we are too tired to walk!!
Yesterday after our Safari Helicopter tour we drove north to get to the Kona coast. We had booked a room at a condo that was right on the coast with a great view of the ocean. Because of the possibility of hurricane Felicia causing high winds later today, Matt decided to get a flight out early this morning from the Kona airport so he could be sure to be on Oahu for work on Tuesday. After a good breakfast at Bongo Ben's we dropped Matt at the airport and continued around the island on our way back to the Hilo airport. Two things we wanted to do were to stop at St. Benedict's Catholic Church which is known as the Painted Church and to drive to South Point, the southern most point of the United States. We made it to both and got to the airport in time for our flight and luckily there were no delays due to Felicia.
