Aloha!

Well, my presentation went very well. There must be over 1,000 people participating in this confererece from all over the world. I met a lot of interesting people. I especially enjoyed the Georgia Tech Glee Club serenading the participants with a lively rendition of "Summer of '69" by Brian Adams. I was nervous to present and glad when it was over.
Yestarday I had the most amazing experience! Carlo and went snorkeling in the Hanauma Bay. It was the first time I snorkeled and I can't wait to do it again! I saw such amazing and beautiful underwater creatures. I swam with a very large Sea Turtle for several minutes. I loved hanging out with all of the fish. They seemed totally relaxed swimming next to me. I think they thought I was one of them. I think I met Nemo. He was telling me, "just keep moving, just keep moving." He is smaller than he looks in the movies. But just as nice. Swimming with the fish made me feel one with nature, and like all is right in the world. I love that feeling.
Today Carlo and I are renting a car with some friends and visiting Pearl Harbor. Then we will go to the North Shore where we will swim and watch people surf. I might even take surfing lessons.
I love Hawaii!

A beautiful beach in Maui
I love the beaches here! They are so quiet and clean. And I love the view of the water next to the mountains. It's breathtaking.

Carlo is so relaxed!

More together time
Doesn't Carlo look great in his Hawaiian-colored shirt! He almost blends in with the trees and fish.

Carlo is relaxing with a good book
He just finished the book (1776) as I posted the last picture.
