An amazing morning in Kailua- Kona

An early start this morning and what a reward! Hualalai Volcano made a rare appearance  - her coat of vog not yet having settled on her peak and upper slopes for the day. Her grandeur is an impressive sight!

A swim training session was on at the Pier for Luke, followed by a ride and run. Pete assisted, supervising the bikes, gear and drinks.




A stunning morning!
Hualalai and sunrise over Kailua-Kona  

Luke and Craig head in for their swim as the sun rises
A good session completed
Others out training as well on this beautiful morning


As the morning creeps by the vog starts to roll in, eventually enveloping the mountain
Run and post run

What else is happening in Kona on this beautiful morning........................................

Band practise in the Palace grounds, much to the delight of street strollers
The landmark fig tree impressively straddles the main street
The local street market displays it's unusual and colourful fruit


A nap on the seawall
Father and daughter enjoy a bodyboard in the big waves 

A magic moment................this beautiful native red parrot spent some time roosting in the tree behind our unit.
