Mice, Karaoke and Jack

We have been in Hawaii now for 2 weeks and it will be hard to leave next weekend. Our days have been filled with coffee, beaches, mice and the occasional tv star. Shortly after we arrived we discovered a mouse running a muck around the house. After realizing that he could make it onto the stove and counter tops we decided it was time for him to leave us. A mouse trap, some cheese (peanut butter didn't work), and a little persistence later, we caught ourselves a mouse. Then his friend. (We won't show you the after picture, only the before one).
Once we caught the mouse we needed something else to pass the time so we decided to stalk some actors from the TV show Lost. Si's next door neighbor works for the show and leaked a couple of upcoming filming locations to us. After many mosquito bites and a couple of hours standing in the rain, we got to see the characters of Jack and Hurley filming on a hiking trail. We were pretty excited because we walked right passed them. I know, we are big nerds.



Si has been a gracious host and taken us out on the town a couple times with some of his friends. One night we spent the better part of 3 hours singing karaoke at a place called Karaoke hut. We think Si needs to start a band, and Eli decided he should never be allowed near a microphone. We had a great time and are looking forward to some more karaoke before we leave.
