Aloha International Road Cleanup

Saturday we woke up Leilani – for the first time on purpose – at 6am to help clean up Kuhio Highway near Kilauea with the folks of Aloha International. She didn’t help much though…

Gimme…

Leilani wants everything we have, eat or drink, but she can’t drink that one for a while. We figured licking the bottle is OK though.

In the car

While riding in the car, Leilani entertains herself with a cloth cat-book.

She has Daddy’s eyes, and Mommy’s nose and she did inherit certain gestures from the Italian ancestors:

Anini Beach Cleanup

Last Sunday Andy had his first scheduled Sierra Club family activity – cleaning up Anini Beach. Unfortunately nobody signed up, but we went anyway, collected 2 bags of trash – that was all there was! I think Anini is the cleanest beach I’ve ever seen.
We didn’t stay long after that, just had a quick picnic and fed the cardinal, it was really cold and windy, and Leilani’s ears felt like little icicles.

Anini Strand Saeuberung

Letzten Sonntag hatte Andy seine erste Sierra Club gesponsorte Familien Aktivitaet, den Anini Strand saeubern. Leider hat ausser uns keiner mitgemacht, aber wir sind trotzdem gefahren, haben 2 Saecke Muell gesammelt. Das war alles was da war, Anini ist der sauberste amerikanische Strand den ich je gesehen habe.
Wir sind dannach nicht lange geblieben, nur fuer ein schneles Picknick, es war windig und fuer Hawaii sehr kalt, Leilani’s Ohren fuehlten sich wie kleine Eiszapfen an.
