WE ARE ENGAGED!!!! Despite the confusion on the plane and the "box" in his pocket, it ended up happening!! Jes, my sis and I went zip lining, while in Hawaii, and that's where it happened. We drove over to Hilo (the scenic route) and saw so many beautiful and neat areas along the way! Absolutely breathtaking!!! If you look close, there was an incredible waterfall! There were helicopter tours getting super close to the waterfall and that must have been so amazing! We had heard of these Portuguese malasadas (donuts) at a place along the way and decided to stop by. The place is called Tex Drive In and its in Honokaa, still on the big island. We ordered lunch there, as well as malasadas to eat there; and some to go! The food was incredibly delicious and the malasadas were, too! Jes and I shared the teriyaki beef burger and loved it!! We all tried and shared the plain, chocolate, guava, mango--well, actually we got one of each flavor! Ha ha! They were all very good, but very rich and sugary. We continued on over to Hilo. My mom and sister and her husband and baby didn't care to zip line. They had done it before so they chose to go to museums and walk around Hilo. It's quite a small town, but it is really cute. Jesse had told me that morning that I should do my hair and makeup a little because he really wanted to take pictures. It was his first time zipping and he was super excited. Kirst and I had been zip lining with the whole family, a few years ago in Maui, before my dad passed. It was unbelievable! We rode in a 15 passenger van for about 20 minutes to a remote location, in the "rainforest". Once we got there, there were peacocks and other wild birds all around. They were so cool!! We all got together and the tour guides talked to us for a while and then geared us up! Here is me and my sis, Kirst. The first few zips were very short, and close to the ground. It was a nice warm up. Gradually, the zip lines got longer and longer. I'm surprisingly terrified of heights!!! It was super scary just jumping off the ledge and zipping quickly through the air over canyons, ponds, and Honolii river. Since we had an odd number, we switched off and took turns with another party that had an odd number. The course had 8 lines!! We were so happy when we found out it had 8 lines because it does take a while to loosen up and get used to it. After the fourth line, we took a snack/bathroom break and tried some exotic fruits. The fourth line I road with Jes and about half way through, you turn around and basically the trees open up and there is this beautiful waterfall that appears!! It was so amazing! This next picture is me looking at the waterfall. We repelled down from the zip tower and tried some exotic fruit with our friend peacock. This is me trying a rambutan. It is this cool, prickly, pink ball fruit. The prickly outside doesn't hurt. Once you bite into it, there's this round ball inside that tastes like a grape. If you know what an EOS chapball is, this fruit looks just like that!! Jesse always likes to step away from the group, at times, and venture off for a second to look at nature. It's something I love about him. He suggested that we all go for a walk to explore before we went back to continue. As we were walking up the slope, a tour guide ran after us and said we needed a chaperone. Not thinking of it twice, we all laughed and I figured it was for liability reasons. We reached the top of the slope and Jesse wanted to take a picture. At the time, I was thinking 'wow, this would be an awesome engagement spot!'; but, we had already established that wasn't going to happen. Well, turns out my family AND Jesse were amazing actors!! I started to look over to see why he wasn't facing the camera, and why the heck the picture was taking so long. My sister was holding the GoPro the whole time. When I started to turn and look at him she'd say, "No, no! Look here! Take the picture, we have to go back!" She sounded normal, so I didn't look until he was just about down on one knee!! At this point I was like "!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT?!!!! HOW? WHAT?!!" I had so many questions, but they all seemed to be answered at once and nothing mattered. He had already asked if I would marry him. At this point all that came out was "NO WAY!!! Oh my gah!", because I was shocked and so surprised and didn't know what to do. Then my sister said, "Did she say no???" and the tour guide said, "SHE SAID NO?!!?" Then I replied with "no..I say YES!!!!! OF COURSE! YES." The ring is EXACTLY what I've always wanted. He spent some serious time trying to find the perfect diamond and I'm so beyond happy with it. He said his heart was beating so fast and the second he got down on his knee he completely forgot what he was going to say. All he ended up saying was "will you marry me?" It felt like he was on his knee forever!!! I honestly couldn't imagine a more perfect proposal. When we walked back to the break area, everyone was clapping and cheering for us. They were all watching us from afar and saw the whole thing. It turns out our "chaperone" just wanted to come along to record it and post it on their Facebook. On the fifth zip line, one of the tour guides suggested that we hold hands and do an "engaged zip", because it had never been done before. It was fun but actually kind of difficult. Made for cute pictures, though. After this fifth zip, we had three more and then went back to meet up with our family. The zip line tour we did was with Big Island Tours and Adventures, through the KapohoKine Adventure store, in downtown Hilo. We had such an amazing time!!!
In a future post I will put up extra pictures from the Hawaii trip. Thanks for reading! Until next time!! Ciao
