The excuse was the Mayo Clinic Interactive Surgery Symposium 2009. A good reason to drag my wife to the Big Island of Hawai'i for a little over a week. The meetings were 4.5 hours each day, Sunday through Friday. The rest of the time was good for relaxation and exploration. The weather was pleasant, and the island has a lot of beauty to offer in its five different climate zones.
The beach at Pololu, on the north coast.
Gorgeous colors.
The one on the right is a bat lilly.
A kind of orchid we hadn't seen before
These looked more like the orchids we remembered.
Still happy after almost 28 years of honeymoon.
