Ultraman I - Fruit Loops


Hello faithful Peter Kotland fans. Dean and I (Brooks) have hijacked Peter's Blog for the week. We will keep you up to date on the happenings of the week from the fun and crazy to the plain painful that is screamed out on the Queen K later this week. Of course we had a fun day of traveling. Peter and I left Greenville and had some entertaining flights. The highlight in the plane came when this YOUNG mother a few rows in front of us lifted her baby high into the air while the infant began puking on the lady behind her. Every body around us seemed concerned, Peter and I were crying because we were laughing so hard. We got to Kona and Peter was giving me a quick tour of the island. At one point we were on the main strip of Alii Drive. There was a guy beside us running with a skateboard. He looks over and starts staring! I get a little tense and figure we might get in a fight with a local ALREADY. But all of the sudden this guy shots out "HEY PETER!" It was classic we had been in Hawaii for less than an hour and Peter is already signing autographs. Typical.

Dean landed later in the evening, he said something about an Ironman and being sore and numb. Okay we believed the Ironman part being he just had an incredible finish at IM Arizona (36 minute PR). But we have now reunited the Lake Placid traveling trio, the band is back together. Now for some more fun times and for Peter to kick some ass.


We arrived at our homestay thanks to the handy GPS navigator that has us laughing all the way to the home. Apparently, GPS has a hard time pronouncing Hawaiian streets. We arrived to our headquarters and settled in for the evening. Since Peter has a little race starting on Friday, we gave him the bed. After much debate, Dean and I claimed our carpet floor locations in the home and slept with the Ghekkos, which apparently eat the ants that crawl along the walls of the home. We're not sure what Ghekko poop looks like but will report back as soon as we spot some in the home.



We are now all jacked up like bunny rabbits on Peter's vintage espresso train. We are gearing up for an ocean swim this morning and plan to pick up Peter's bike at the post office. We will keep you informed, post pics and update you as the week progresses.
