Happy New Year!

Tim had two weeks off during holidays and we had a wonderful time. We visited the Bishop Museum (three times), the Honolulu Art Gallery, the Aviation Museum and more. Spent hours on the beach and did a few hikes. Tim and Eli went ocean fishing on a kayak with our pastor RJ. The ocean was calm and beautiful and Eli caught two fish! both were delicious! believe or not but we sure do not miss the cold and rain right now! Here are a few pics. Happy New Year! 

Tim měl přes svátky dva týdny volna, a tak jsme navštívili národní muzeum v Honolulu, letecké muzeum v Pearl Harbor a další atrakce. Také jsme vyrazili na pořádnou túru, odpočinuli si na pláži a Elijášek si zarybařil z kajaku. Chytil dvě ryby. Moc dobré.

Out favorite beach. We come here every Friday with the children. There are always turtles sunbathing or swimming in the ocean. 

Sem chodíme každý pátek na pláž. Pokaždé tam jsou želvy. 

 Eli likes skimboarding. He is doing pretty good!

Elijášek se učí na prkně. Docela mu to jde. 


 One of many trips to Honolulu. This time we went to the Bishop Museum. 

Honolulu Art Gallery. Amazing setting. Here we are in the Mediterranean Court Yard.

Makiki - Tantalus hike. 8 miles round trip with 1500" elevation gain. Sofia's first big hike. She did great! We were very proud of her. The hike was beautiful, very scenic and interpretative. We learn about volcano rocks, native plants and birds. Passed a snail habitat, bamboo groove and a few cinnamon trees. the views were stunning. We enjoy hiking so much! Lucie is a great hiker too. She did a 2 mile hike with a breeze!

Výšlap na sopku Tantalus nad městem Honolulu. 13 kilometrů. Děti to ušly v pohodě. Krásný výhled a příroda.

The Czech Republic with Kids

You hug your husband very tight at Paris' Airport. And while he flies back to the USA, you take your children home to the Czech Republic to visit babi and deda, cousins and family and everything feels okay because your God is bigger than your fears and worries and you are covered with faithful prayers of your family and friends.   And the things you do at home are awesome. You walk a dog every day. Twice a day. Three times a day. And you cannot wait to do it again the next day. Because you are THREE and you LOVE dogs.  And you hold your grandparents hand and it feels so much better than looking at them through cold computer screen.   And you are 12 and you get to ride a go cart out in the field. And give your little sister a ride, too. Because you are "da man" when daddy is not around.  And you are 9 and get to ride a four wheeler all by yourself and pass everyone on the track, older cousin included!  Because you are totally fearless and
