The response to the Christmas parade video was pretty surprising in a good way. Lot's of folks emailed and or commented here that they liked the video. So I thought I'd do one of the monthly Kona Stroll that was held in the village today.
Actually, I shot so much great video today I will do multiple clips over the next week or so leading up to Christmas. Enjoy... Coming up will be footage of Christmas Hula at the concert that was going on at Hulihee Palace during the Stroll.
Just wanted to say, I had the opputunity to visit Hawaii and was bulking at the long trip and what I thouight as overrated by the travel industry. But I ended up going and it has to be the most beautiful land I have ever visited. The Big Island was my favorite, from the volcanoes to the beatiful beaches, waterfalls, snow capped vocano. It has everything and the people are great. Well just wanted to share that with you and I really do enjoy your video's and articles. It brings back good memories. Thanks for your time. Bill

Our November 09 trip was our 1st trip to Kailua Kona and we loved the Kona Inn shopping area - such a mellow place to hang out. I don't know how we missed the Stroll when we were there?! With so much to do and see we must've Zigged when we should've Zagged. Mahalo Joe!
