The last 12 days have been bliss. I knew that this holiday would be about Dawn spending time with her family which translated into two-weeks of relaxing, swimming, sleeping, eating and generally being taken care of like we were at a five-star hotel.

Some of the highlights of the trip have been
* waking up to a home cooked breakfast
* helping the kids with their homework
* watching TV I can understand
* watching the Olympics and cheering for 4 different teams
* the beauty of Hawaii
* painting Easter eggs
* doing my first ever Easter egg hunt
* sitting down to a family dinner with up to 11 people every night
* eating fresh mangoes from the tree
* seeing the Bodies exhibit (not as bad as I imagined!)
* Jamba Juice
* swimming in the sea
* eating and enjoying cooked fish
* eating real corned beef – not the canned kind
* guava juice
* the prices in America – so cheap
* visiting Pearl Harbor
* seeing traditional crafts made right before my eyes
* grandma – see video!
About Me
- Rebo-chan
- I was born and raised in Burntwood, England before moving to Aberystwyth, Wales for university. I loved Wales but felt like a break from the UK and so I came to Japan to be an ALT with the JET Programme in 2005. I finished JET in July 2010 but returned to Japan just one month later because I love it that much!
