Sunday – July 5: Tried Church down at Assumption Parish in Puako. Service at 10:00 and only 20 minutes away. Much quicker, but we liked the same priest at Annunciation up in Waimea.

Beautiful homes down in Puako, reminded us of home out in Waimea on Kauai, nice and quiet and on the beach. A very slow town, you really can’t count it as that though.

Went to dinner at the Macaroni Grill down at the Queen’s shops. Same menu, even takeout, but the wine isn’t by the tumbler glass like in California on the honor system. The liquor laws prohibit that in Hawaii, so you order by the separate glass.

Got to see the International Space Station fly by overhead about 8:48 pm, it traveled from WSW to N in about 4 minutes, very cool. You can see it a few more times this week too!
