Canadian Maple Syrup

Last Saturday me and a bunch of my friends got together and had an awesome breakfast before the HOT Hawaiian sun came into our midst. The morning featured, European style pancakes, strawberries, pineapple, eggs, yoghurt and of course 100% Pure Canadian Maple Syrup. Yes that was actually the reason I decided to put on this event in honors of the syrup and my friend Simon, who loves Maple Syrup, especially Canadian MS...he's from Sweden. Unfortunately he didn't make it but I forgave him. Hope you remember what you missed Simon...

The Lights of LV

So I flew into Las Vegas last night and managed to stay awake...totally exhausted though! The airport is literally right beside the strip. I thought we were going to see it from a distance and then people were talking about it on the other side of the airplane so I thought I missed it. Suddenly there it was right outside the window! Thousands of colours and lights and shiny things. I saw the MGM grand all decorated in bright green lights, the Wynn, the fake effel tower, the pyramid hotel with a spot light shining into the atmosphere and lots of other money grabbing casinos and hotels. I then regretted not bringing my camera!

Well I went into the airport and managed to get onto a flight early so I didn't have to sleep then wake up again. I arrived in Pheonix at 1AM, 4AM (EST) but I had 3 seats to myself on the hour flight and crashed through that. Then I managed to find a semi quiet bench and slept for only 3 hours cause I was freezing my butt off from the air-conditioning. Plus the buzz of the airport was a little loud for me and I chose to sleep in an early boarding gate...how would I know?

So I sit here looking out onto the city thinking about how hot it must be there
(I think I heard 40Cish/105F today), how tired I am and about finishing homework. I am also thinking about how awesome it is to have free internet connection at an airport!!

Back to Kona

So this is my forgotten blogspot that I have decided to bring back to life. It's a little easier to share with everyone and show pictures so here you are!

I am also including some promised photographs of my time in Columbia a couple of weeks ago.

I had a wonderful time at home so thanks everyone who was able to meet with me. I wanted to stay for longer but it wasn't possible so sorry to all you I didn't get to catch up with.

I am currently in the Pheonix airport waiting to catch my next and final flight to Kona, Hawaii. I will be continuing to work with the photogenX ministry. I will be here for at least two months and am seeking direction for my next "season". I will most likely continue to work with photogenX and my leaders Paul and Susi Childers in some way!

PLEASE DO NOT COPY/PASTE/SAVE PHOTOGRAPHS! THEY ARE FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT BUT NOT TO KEEP. THANKS, AARON.
