Aloha from Hawaii

Aloha Twi-hards,
We just finished the race-we did really well- in Hawaii. Right now, Kylee and I are soaking up the sun on the beach, watching the other teams run around like crazy. I'm under an umbrella-you know, vampires and sunlight= sparkles- and Kylee's working on her tan. Okay, enough laying around, I'll tell you what we did. We had to get a flight from Pearson International in Toronto, to Kona International in Hawaii. We then had to find out what happened at Pearl Harbor and who won the "battle" which was Japan. Next we played some good-old-fashioned battle ship, we had to sink two of the other player's battleship's. We then traveled to Mount Kilauea to find out the name of the volcano goddess. Her name is Pele, and I knew her name but at the time, it escaped me so we had to Google it. We got to learn some Hawaiian by finding the 12 consonants and vowels in the Hawaiian alphabet (7 consonants, 5 vowels). Then there was a fast forward which we skipped. Next we traveled via boat to Honolulu, and there we found some surfer boys who needed colouring, we had to colour them in nice and neat. And now, we're relaxing at the Pink Palace on the Pacific. 

Kylee and I found this great hula festival we were going to go to tomorrow. It's called the Hula Invitational Festival. 16 countries from all over come to Hawaii to compete... Hula style.What a great day, all in all we think we came in first.
Thanks for the support and for reading our blog!
Love,
