I can't believe it's been a week without us posting. Things here have been alot of the same for the past week or so; work in the morning (mural or groundwork) with occasional jaunts off to Kehena beach or the warm ponds. I suppose after 4 weeks in paradise, even the miraculously beautiful becomes somehow the norm.
The biggest news of the last week was our continued inability to get in touch with the farm on Molokai we were to be staying at. This morning their number came back as disconnected. We scrambled for fall-back options. Unlike the rest of the Hawaiian islands, Molokai lacks enough state parks with campgrounds, meaning that without a farm or other workstay program, we'd be doing the turtle analogy more literally then we'd intended.

After getting in touch with the other two wwoof farms on Molokai, only to be told they were only accepting long term apprentices, we decided to extend our stay on the Big Island until our flight to Kauai. Disaster averted, we're spending tonight lining up the next farm on the island.
The mural should be finished tomorrow. While Karissa handles that, I'll be going to Hilo to pick up our rental car. 7 days with a car. Having saved up a half week's supply of Free Days here, I don't think it'll take a week for our next post.
