Apparently +19c is quite cold.

Marlin and Karin's house, Kona-Kailua HI (2 stars)

So we got up today and it was +19C at about 8 am. My sister told us that is the coldest temperature she had experienced in five years of living here.

No worries, it is headed to +24C today, and no clouds.

Lee's sister is busy pulling weeds from the flower beds, wearing thick gardening gloves. I added my token help without gloves, and was warned the area I chose to work in has fire ants. A great moment for "very dangerous Indy, you go first" if there ever was one.

Lee checked in with the Parksville (home) neighbours, and all is well, given it was -12C last night. If only we could bottle this kind of weather. Will enjoy it while we are here, so not spending much time on the computer until the day is over.

We will head out into the clear blue overhead skies again today and check out more local sights. I think I heard the words quilt shop.
