Halloween (better late than never)


It was almost a month ago now, but here are this year's Halloween pics.

Firstly, there are a few photos from our pumpkin carving efforts that I've uploaded to Flickr. We went over to our friends' place for lots of food and drink, some pumpkin carving, and also to watch Halloween (the original movie). It was a very enjoyable evening.

Secondly, we went to a Halloween fancy dress party with some other friends of ours. You can see the pictures on our friend's website.

Photos from Big Island


We uploaded two more sets of photos from our Hawaii holiday to Flickr.

The first set of photos are from our stay on the east side of the island, near Hilo. The highlight on this side was undoubtedly the volcano, but we also did lots of sight-seeing too.

The second set of photos are from our time on the west side of the island, close to Kona. The end of our holiday was deliberately more relaxed, with lots more beach time. Highlights of this last part of the holiday were probably our trip to the summit of Mauna Kea, and the lovely self-catered apartment we stayed in at Chez Marquis.

Ah Hawaii... we miss you!

Photos from Kauai


We've uploaded photos from the first Hawaiian island that we visited on our recent holiday - Kauai. We spent 6 days on Kauai, and 8 days on Big Island. I think Kauai was our favourite. It's the oldest island in the group, which makes its landscape some of the most beautiful. It's also a small island, with our very relaxed atmosphere. The highlight of this part of the holiday was probably the helicopter flight we did with Jack Harter Helicopters - brilliant! You can find the photos here on Flickr.

First Hawaii photos


It's been a long haul, but we're getting there. We've been pretty busy since we got back, and it's taken longer than we expected to go through all the photos we took in Hawaii. Here's the first lot that we've uploaded to Flickr (or at least Steph has - she's done all the work on this one). They're a bunch of photos Steph took with underwater cameras whilst snorkelling.

Still to come (once we title them all) - lots of photos of Hawaii itself :)
