Happy Aloha Friday

[artringwald]

Happy Aloha Friday!!! You can tell it's January as our low temps are reaching the mid-60's and our highs are only about 81. Looks like we may be closing some windows at night at times.

This weeks picture takes us to The Big Island and downtown Kona. Alii Drive goes right along the ocean there and one of the mainstays over many years now is the Royal Kona. This resort is right on the ocean so it has sweeping ocean views. We stayed here on our first trip to The Big Island over a decade ago.

Enjoy and have an Awesome Aloha Friday and a Great Weekend!!!

Happy Aloha Friday! We've stayed there several times. On our first two trips it was the Kona Hilton. By 1994, Hilton sold it and it became the Royal Kona Resort. That year we had a room overlooking the Boom Boom Deck. You can see how it got its name. I loved falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves.

Yep, same for us. We were on the first floor oceanfront and the lanai was huge.

Sometimes the waves there get too big and they have to close down the outdoor dining.
