Well we have pretty much just been being real lazy around here.  It is a beautiful place, and it is nice to just relax.

Last night we went to New Hope Church.  It is a very cool church, they have several campuses all over Hawaii, and all over the world.  The music very much has a Hawaiian style to it, and the hosts and speakers come out with leis on.  Last night they interviewed Brian Clay, the gold medal winner of the decatholon in the recent Beijing Olympics.  Then afterwards, one of their pastors came out to share a message.  He was a very dynamic and fun speaker.  Their head pastor Dr. Wayne Cordeiro, is away in Oregon right now helping Eugene Christian Univerisity.  While he is gone, the speakers like to point fun at him, and the crowds thought it was hilarious, as did I.  They like to have fun at New Hope, and so it was a pleasure to be there.

Today we are going to ride Motorcycles around the island.  Roy Graham, our contact person here, has found a motorcycle for me to borrow, and Ryan is renting one.  So we are going to go around the whole island today, and I am pretty excited about that.  It should be a lot of fun.  Hopefully we will report back with pictures from around the whole island.
