We made our way to the Big Island for a short 3 1/2 day stay to scatter Aya’s mom’s ashes on Big Island where we scattered her father’s ashes. United was having a contest on who could guess the exact time and second where we would cross the half way point from LA to the Big Island. Aya’s brother used a formula to calculate the distance and Aya just randomly guessed….yup…wouldn’t you know it…down the second and Aya guessed correctly!
We got a free CD with Hawaiian music for the correct guess. Aya’s brother was upset because he actually thought it out and was off by 13 seconds. Aya gave him the CD anyway.
Our arrival at the Kona airport. Aya’s mom is in the backpack:
Aya and I came to the Big Island in 2003 and stayed at the Fairmont Orchid. We really liked it so we stayed here again:
