Jill and I went to Hawaii from 2/26/09 - 3/7/09.  We stayed at the Sheraton in Kona (the Big Island) for the first two nights, then joined up with 3 other couples (Deanna & Erin and some of their friends) in a rental house for the rest of the trip.  We had a great time!  We had quite an adventure from hiking over lava cliffs, snorkeling, taking a helicopter tour of the island, driving to the top of Mauna Kea (13,970 feet), watching fresh lava pour into the ocean at night, and touring just about everything on the island.  We have quite a few pictures from our week on the Big Island!!
