There were some big upsets on the Krause family tour of the USA. Jeremy started out as a clear cut favourite in "who is going to lose their temper first". Twenty minutes after check in, and the favourite came round the bend for a clear cut win. The complaint? "I don't want plain chips as they're too salty!". The second event and the daily double/trifecta competition was "Who would be sick first". After three days, this event has already been decided. Once again the favourite came home strong and in only just over an hour Riley had filled up his barf bag in what is a new family record.
Day 2 saw a second place come in with Mark coming down with some disgusting stomach bug which has shown that there are some advantages to American-style toilets. It's now 6.03pm on Day 3 and it seems that Annette is just about to come in 3rd. The first two days were spent on Oahu where we made some ridiculously long walk up the edge of a volcanic crater. In the words of Dr Smith "Oh, the pain!". Worse was yet to come - the afternoon was spent shopping. In the mall, nobody can hear you scream. More shocking events were soon to occur. Jeremy went to a smorgasbord and ate something. He isn't adopted after all!
An early morning wake up call on Day 3 and here we are on the Big Island. We ate Maccas for lunch and the good news is that it still hasn't made an encore appearance. A one hour drive on the wrong side of the road to see some waterfalls and then we checked into our accommodation. For the last 5 hours Mark has slept, and Riley has done some of his Science assignment. Two people wanted to eat and the others couldn't face food. Oh well, even in a different time zone, tomorrow is another day. Aloha everyone!
