This is Sharon's new favorite bird. She calls it a Buckeye bird but it is actually a red-crested cardinal.

Sharon filming another sunset. I made her pose for this picture and she missed the sunset! Oh, well it will set again tomorrow evening.

Butterfly garden at the Rain Forest Zoo on the Big Island.

A variety of plumeria, a favorite for making leis.

Today Sara took us to the Aloha Swap Meet. It is a flea market set up around the Aloha Bowl. Lots of vendors selling t-shirts, jewelry, Hawaiian shirts and other stuff that tourists would buy. Not really the kind of "treasures" or junk that Mr. B would be interested in but it was very interesting and we picked up a few last minute souvenirs. Betty I think you will be pleasantly surprised! Sara is taking her Dad out tonight for his belated birthday dinner. Should be lots of fun. Rained today and tomorrow is our last day. Hope the sun shines for a little while!
