Aloha.

Quick update after week 1.

Overall everything is going very well and everything is as beautiful as I remember it. Strange new construction on the east and south sides of the island, sort of heartbreaking....

We found a house, a beautiful 3 bedroom/2 bath on the Wailua river outside of Kapa'a. Magnificent scenery and our backyard is a forest with coconut, papaya, avocado, mango, and banana trees that are well established and mature bearing heavy loads of fruit. Park across the street with tennis courts, soccer field, and a general playground and the bus stop is at the end of the driveway. We are a little in the country and that is just the way we like it.

Mahalo & aloha.

Aloha! And mahalo nui loa, my friend!!!

I tried to upload a few pictures but I have to resize them first and I just haven't had the gumption to do it yet.

But I will.

Where specifically is the new construction you wrote about on the east & south sides? Also, you have my curiosity up as in what is "strange" about it & "heartbreaking"?

Come on over and I can show you.

They are building onto the Kukui'ula Village Shopping Center, new Safeway going up in Līhu'e along with many other strip style malls. That in itself is heartbreaking the same as when walmart took over the mainland and forced local businesses to go under. And new resort plans for the coconut coast and Princeville.
Doesn't that just break your heart?
