Hawaii

This is one of those mornings when I regret not bringing my digital camera... the view from here is so beautiful...

It's pretty early in the morning (far earlier than I'm accustomed to waking)... the air is cool and smells so sweet... I actually woke up before the sun.  Strange, because that's when I usually turn in.

I'll be here a week for shows, after which it'll be time to head back home.  Although a week in paradise is always wonderful, it doesn't beat a lifetime at home.

Aloha, Lea! I hope you enjoy your week in Hawaii. I love visiting Maui, especially Kaanapali Beach. Wish I were there right now...sure beats the cold California nights we're experiencing here!

Can't wait to see two of your shows in paradise! I'm making sure I bring my digital camera. Even if my luggage with clothes in it gets lost, I'll be happy with the concerts and pictures! Enjoy your visit and the appreciative audiences!

Rod Cahayag said...

Hi Lea,

I recommend Waimea Falls if you get a chance Lea. The walk is really nice and you'll be able to swim to the water falls. Beautiful site for pictures.

Denise Linsangan said...

Trin R said...

Hi Leah!! I am so excited to see yah tomorrow for the concert! My family will be there, too. Salamat dahil one of my dreams, that is to see you sing, will finally come true.
A million thanks to your voice. :) SEE YAH!

Rob S said...

The Maui concert was awesome tonight. Augie T. opened up the show and you brought it home Lea. The crowd, made up of mostly of Maui's proud Filipinos, really enjoyed the music in their home language. By the way, that gown you wore in the 2nd part of the show was fabulous! Thanks for a great show Lea. Come back soon!!!!! Good luck in Oahu! =)
