Visiting the campus of The United States Merchant Marine Academy , also called Kings Point. I ran a few laps around their track.

Shoveling Sunshine in Paradise-

Image
In 1994 On Board The SS Constitution My first extended stay In  Paradise was on America Hawaii Cruises. I just wanted a different experience, and I took the first job I could get, which was a deck hand. We sailed for seven  days and each day we had a port of call. Starting off with an embarkation day at Aloha Towers in Honolulu, then a sea day, and we hit Kauai, Maui(Lahina and Kahalui) Hilo and Kona. It was the best!  The weather was always temperate and I had the most energizing and spirtually uplifting time, enjoying the weather, the people, the food, the culture and the OHANA-family atmosphere of Hawaii. I have been hooked ever since on these beautiful islands. The definition of ecstasy is that you are not doing your ordinary everyday ho-hum existence. Shoveling sunshine in Hawaii beats a day at the office.

Big Island Adventures - Shoveling Sunshine in Paradise THE BIG ISLAND SHOVELING SUNSHINE "My First Extended Stay In Paradise" Kona Coffee & Blue Hawaii Kona has coffee; and where there is coffee there is caffeine, and where there is caffeine, there is Starbucks and the opportunity to do stupid things faster. Kona's ocean water almost always reflects a blue Hawaii that leaves me thinking "Where is the ukulele and Elvis sightings?" "American coffee is 'dirty water' and Instant coffee takes too long. Kona, however, is 'Ono'. Tastes good." ...
