We had a very nice time on a quick trip over to Big Island from Oahu. We were shocked at the differences in the two islands, but thoroughly enjoyed the slower pace and all the natural beauty surrounding us. Living off grid for a few days really allowed us to unplug as a family and enjoy one another in a different way. It also opened up our children’s eyes to the different ways people live. We could have spent all our time out on the lava fields. Our kids throughly enjoyed them! I’d have to say my favorite part was the rain on the tin roof and the constant breeze flowing through at night! Overall, we had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again, given the opportunity!
