For Fall break, we decided to do a little island-hopping to our favorite resort: The Hilton Waikoloa.
Unbeknownst to us, this also happened to be the same weekend as the Kona Iron Man competition! So, after a bit of a scare in our flight arrangements, we did managed to make it safely to Kona! I brought the kids first since Mitch had to work, but we found some ways to occupy ourselves for a few hours before Daddy arrived!
After a hectic breakfast with me and the kids (future note: buffet dining with one adult and 4 kids who canNOT get their own food? Not recommended), we did some exploring around the resort!
And then hit up the pool. The kids LOVE the pools and waterslides here.
Daddy's here!
And so we ventured to the other side of the resort to a different pool!
Personally, I love the sandy pool.
Here Jolee sits atop a turtle in the sandy pool.
The hot tub! With a waterfall inside!
I think the kids' favorite thing about this resort is that it is SO large, you have the option of taking a tram or a boat to travel between the towers. And if you're lucky, the boat driver will let you ride up on top and "take the wheel!" It was super crowded so only Kaden got to "steer" the boats this time. The girls grumbled a bit but decided it was okay since they got to steer plenty of times on previous trips. Kaden, of course, loved it up there.
And so, after a very short 2 night stay, we had to say Aloha Oe to Waikoloa.
It's always nice to take a couple days to get away from the hustle and bustle of life at home to relax and enjoy some family time together. So very grateful for Mitch and his job that allows us to take these short trips off island!
