Mele Kalikimaka!

Christmas day turned out to be a lovely one, although it did rain in the evening but by then it no longer mattered. Susan, Sarah and I went for a walk along the beach in the morning This time I wore my water shoes so did not aggravate the blister on my big toe! Afterwards the girls spent a few hours on the beach and swimming while I kept guard at the house and just relaxed reading and watching a bit of television.

The owners of our accommodation were nice enough to put up a real Christmas tree for us, including decorations! Most of the decorations are various types of  fishing floats. And it is capped off with a tiki statue.

After they got back from the beach the girls relaxed on the deck chairs on the patio for a while.
Then we went for a walk to La'ie Point, about 15 minutes from our residence. There we had an unobstructed view of a near shore island through which the surf in recent years has knocked a hole through creating an arch.

Upon returning, and after showering, everyone changing into their Christmas best.
We then had a small gift exchange then relaxed before sitting down to a baked chicken dinner. All in all, we spent a wonderful Christmas day together enjoying the best of what Hawaii has to offer at this time of year! And on that note we wish you all a Merry Christmas!
