One of the most common complaints during pregnancy is back pain. In fact, it's estimated that more than half of all women experience some degree of back discomfort. Most back pain is related to the physical changes that occur during pregnancy, including hormones, changes in the center of gravity, and posture. Unfortunately, it typically worsens as pregnancy progresses.
Throughout pregnancy, hormones affect a woman's muscles and joints. The hormones relaxin and progesterone relax muscles and loosen ligaments and joints, especially in the pelvic area. The extra weight and body changes in pregnancy along with these loosened joints and ligaments can cause discomfort and even lead to injury.
As your uterus grows and becomes heavier, your center of gravity changes, which can lead to problems with balance and the potential for falls. The weight of your baby and weakening of abdominal muscles pulls your lower spine forward, adding strain to back muscles. Many women respond by leaning back in an awkward posture, which increases back strain and pain.
Some back pain can be prevented:
Try using proper body mechanics. For example, if you need to pick something up, squat down, bending at your knees and keeping your back straight. Avoid bending over from your waist.
Use good posture when sitting or standing and do back-strengthening exercises. Ask your health care provider about back exercises that are right for you.
Avoid activities that strain the back, such as lifting and moving heavy objects.
Wear shoes that provide good support.
If you are already having discomfort, talk with your doctor. Back pain relief may require rest, supportive garments, or other treatment.
Prevention and treatment of back pain are important to avoid injury and to decrease the chance for long-term or chronic back pain. Because back pain in pregnancy can be a symptom of more serious problems including preterm labor, always talk with your doctor.

A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play, his labour and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself he always seems to be doing both. Enough for him that he does it well.

Former Arizona recruit Brandon Jennings has agreed to play professionally in Italy, signing with Virtus Roma.
Jennings, who played his final two high school seasons for Oak Hill Academy in Virginia, had not yet become academically eligible to play at Arizona.
His family's attorney, Jeff Valle, said Wednesday that Virtus Roma offered an "aggressive multi-year contract with NBA release provisions which are fair for both parties."
As one of the top point guard recruits in the country, Jennings was expected to start for the Wildcats this season. He could not jump to the NBA, which requires players to be at least one year removed from their high school classes graduation before being eligible to play in the league.

This biography from the Archives of AskART:
Born in Austria, John Fery earned a strong reputation for dramatic paintings of western mountain landscape in the United States. Glacier National Park in northwest Montana was a popular subject for him.
He was raised in a prominent, wealthy family that lived on an estate about nineteen miles northeast of Salzburg. His mother was Hungarian, and his father was born in Bohemia. S ome sources have written that he studied art in Dusseldorf, Germany with Peter Jansen, and also in Munich, Venice and Karlsruhe. But his "name does not appear in the records of the major art schools in any of these places, nor is there any record of his name at either the Vienna or Budapest academies." (Merrill 26) It is possible, however, that he received private instruction, and because of the sophistication of his painting, sources think it unlikely that he was self taught.
An early interest in wilderness scenery led him to painting American landscapes and hunting scenes. In the mid 1880s, he came to America and lived in the German community in Milwaukee, and then in 1886, brought his family to the United States. His wife, Mary Rose Kraemer (1862-1940), was born in Switzerland, and they had one child born near Munich and two others born in the United States. From 1886 to 1888, they lived in New York, and by 1890, Fery had made his first trip West.
He visited Yellowstone Park in 1891, and indicated in his writings that he had been there even earlier. From 1892 to 1893, he led European nobility on hunting expeditions to the American Northwest, made possible by the completion of the Northern Pacific Railroad. The group's itinerary included Lake Michigan, Arizona with the Grand Canyon, New Mexico, California, Oregon and Wyoming. In 1895, he led a second expedition, and these ventures launched his career as a painter of the American West.
During the late 1890s, he lived with his family in a cabin near Jackson Lake, Wyoming, but by 1900 was in Duluth, Minnesota, where he and Austrian-born painter Feodor von Luerzer painted mural decorations for the Fitger Brewery tap room. (In 1914, the murals were moved to the Pickwick Restaurant in Duluth, where they remained for many years).
By 1903, Fery was in Milwaukee where he stayed until 1911, when he moved to St. Paul, Minnesota until 1918. His greatest patron became Louis Hill, owner of the Great Northern Railway and a resident of St. Paul. Hill commissioned Fery to paint scenes of Glacier Park and other scenic landscapes for placement in their hotels and railroad stations. Over the years the Railroad purchased a total of 362 works, and many of these paintings were large-scale, panoramas.
In 1914, after several years of painting in Glacier Park, Fery did a series of about twelve oil paintings of Yellowstone for advertising purposes for the Northern Pacific Railroad.
Itinerant, Fery seems never to have settled in one place for very long. From 1919 to 1923, he was living in Salt Lake City, Utah where he painted many landscapes, especially of Zion Canyon. Then he returned to Milwaukee until 1929, when he moved to Orcas Island near Bellingham, Washington. That same year a fire took all his possessions including thousands of sketches and many paintings. After that he moved to Everett, Washington where he died five years later.
About 150 of his paintings have been found after his death, and the largest group are of Glacier National Park, but some are from California, Arizona and New Mexico and Wisconsin. One is from Venice, Italy and one from Bavaria. Most of the paintings are in private collections but the Burlington Northern Railway, successor to the Great Northern Railway, has work by Fery in the collection as does the Church of the Latter Day Saints Museum in Salt Lake City. In 1974, an exhibition of his work was held at the Milwaukee Public Library, and in 1975 at the Boise Gallery of Art in Boise, Idaho.

Biography from
Manitou Galleries
John Fery was born in 1859 into a prominent and wealthy Austrian family, and grew up on his father's estate, located between Linz and Salzburg. He studied art in Vienna with Gripenkerl, in Dusseldorf with Peter Jansen, and in Karlsruhe with Schwenlehr.
Fery also studied in Munich. He declined a permanent position at the famous Dusseldorf Academy, preferring to come to the United States to practice his art and to follow his interest in wilderness scenery.
Fery came to America in 1886 and he lived on the Eastern seaboard for about five years. He quickly established himself as a successful painter of American landscape and hunting scenes, living for several years at Lake George and in the Catskill Mountain region, and later in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and New Jersey. Around 1890 he returned briefly to Europe.
It appears that the result of his return to Europe was the organization of a hunting party led by Fery, which spent the years 1892 and 1893 traveling through the Midwest and far West United States in search of wilderness scenery and wild game. An undated article from the
Milwaukee Journal
provides a glimpse of the tour: "John Fery, a native of Hungary(sic), and as such a sportsman of the word's best meaning, conceived the idea, of organizing a party of lovers of the chase, selected form the European gentry and members of the aristocracy, for hunting trip in the virgin hunting grounds of the Northern Rockies of America, which the completion of the Northern Pacific (Railroad) had brought into the lime-light of European notice at that time. A call issued to that effect by Mr. Fery in
Hunter's Journals
was soon answered by Count Bleuchar, by Count Zepplin, Harry Meisenback, inventor of the half-tone process, and four other persons who together with Mr. Fery made up a party of eight huntsmen and started for the U.S. in 1893."
The itinerary of the group included Lake Michigan, New Mexico, Arizona, the Grand Canyon of Colorado, California, Oregon and Wyoming. Fery published an article recounting his experiences in the
European Hunter's Journal
under the title "Eine Jagt in Wyoming." He led a second expedition to the West in 1895, and these adventures were the beginning of his career as a painter of the Western landscape.
Fery's greatest patron was the Great Northern Railroad. He was commissioned to do paintings of the scenery along the railroad's route through the West, particularly in Glacier National Park. He was an important artistic stimulant in the creation of Glacier National Park, just as Moran had been earlier in the creation of Yellowstone National Park and Grand Canyon of the Colorado Park.
Fery died in Everett, Washington in 1934.
Many of Fery's paintings were on a grand scale, as large as 10 by 12 feet in size, but his smaller works are still sought by collectors for their vivid rendering of the Western landscape.
Biography from
Braarud Fine Art
Born in Austria in 1859, John Fery studied art in Vienna, Düsseldorf, and Munich. He conducted hunting expeditions to the Pacific Northwest for wealthy Europeans before settling in the United States in 1886. He lived for various lengths of time in Arizona, California, Minnesota, Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin.
While traveling and painting in the Rocky Mountains, Fery impressed members of the Hill family, developers of the Great Northern Railway Company, who hired him to paint pictures dramatizing the beauties of the region. Many of the more than three-hundred works he completed hung in station houses, hotels, and lodges served by the railroad.
The Great Northern Railway Company was not only an important patron for Fery and other artists, but as has been noted by William Gerdts in
Art Across America: Two Centuries of Regional Painting 1710-1920
and others, its stations and hotels served in a real sense as the first "art galleries" in the West, at a time before traditional art institutions were even envisioned in the region.
Since that time, arts institutions in the West have grown in number and prominence. Among the many holding examples of Fery's work are the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson, Wyoming, the Charles M. Russell Museum in Great Falls, Montana, the Boise Art Museum, and the Museum of History and Industry in Seattle.
Fery settled on Orcas Island, Washington in 1929, only to see his studio and much of his work destroyed the same year by fire. He died in Everett, Washington in 1934.
Biography from
Thomas Nygard Gallery
John Fery (1859-1934)
John Fery was born in 1859 in Hungary to an aristocratic family. From what little is known about his life, scholars have determined that Fery studied in Europe before coming to the United States. He spent time under Peter Jansen at the famed Dusseldorf Academy in Germany.
His transition to the U.S. was gradual at first. Initially he led European nobility on hunting trips throughout the Northwest. It was during these trips between 1892 and 1893 that he first painted the landscape of the American West.
Fery exhibited at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1983; Everett Drama League, 1930, 1931; Regional Painters of Puget Sound, 1870-1920, Museum of History and Industry, Seattle, Washington, 1986.
In about 1900, Fery worked in Utah painting "many large oils of the natural wonders of the West." He lived and worked in many western locations, some which were Minnesota, Arizona, Washington, Oregon and California.
One of Fery's more important contributions is that he aided in the creation of Glacier National Park through his paintings. Commissioned by the Great Northern Railroad, he painted the scenery along its route and in Glacier National Park in order to help attract people and attention to that area. He also worked for the Oregon Journal contributing many wonderful pieces to that publication.
John Fery died at the age of seventy-five in Everett, Washington.

A prolific artist of expansive mountain views and Western wildlife, John Fery studied art in the academies of Vienna, Munich, and Dusseldorf before coming to Milwaukee in 1883. There he worked briefly as a panorama painter before returning to Germany. Fery came back to the United States, where he traveled and painted in the western states during the following decade.
At the invitation of Louis W. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railway, Fery painted over 300 vistas of mountain scenery along the road's tracks across Montana. His paintings of the mountains, lakes, and wildlife of Glacier National Park, some approaching billboard size, are Fery's most famous and characteristic work.. Fery's purple-tinged palette and broad, thick brushstrokes are as distinctive as his concentration on Rocky Mountain views and wildlife.

More Choices: SourceForge Adds to its Repertoire
SourceForge, the popular host of countless Open Source projects, is extending its repertoire of source code management systems, among them Git.
SourceForge should be familiar to most Open Source users: for many years the Internet platform has given thousands of software projects a virtual home, including the use of the Subversion and CVS source code management (SCM) systems.
SourceForge is now extending its offerings to free hosting for Git, Bazaar and Mercurial so that users can check their code in and out using these SCM systems.
The availability of diverse version control systems makes complete sense in view of the diverse needs. Linus Torvalds developed Git, for example, because no free alternatives existed at the time to satisfy kernel developers' requirements.
A few projects will probably take their time to switch to SourceForge, but they won't have to learn any new syntax. While MySQL, Launchpad and the Linux Foundation have for some time already used Bazaar for an SCM system, the ALSA, NFTS-3g and OpenJDK projects have used Mercurial.

When firms decide to branch out into a new area of business, they might feel the need to hire new employees from outside the organization as most hiring managers assume that the best candidates are those who have performed the exact role before. The reasons for that are perfectly sensible—they want an identical skill set so the new hire will hit the ground running.

Josh Camire is the Director of Digital Marketing and Communications at Jackson Family Wines.In this blog, he discusses how to humanize your wine brand, and toauthentically connect with your audiences on social platforms.
When it comes to connecting with any audience, but especially a social audience, the key is to humanize your brand. In doing that, a major obstacle marketers confront is some of the perceived snobbery that is deeply entrenched in the wine industry.
How will you manage your business during the tight supply of grapes in the coming years? How do you create an effective social media plan? Is there a real wine market in China? Participants discussed these questions (and many more) during the 12th Annual UC Davis Wine Executive Program, presented by the UC Davis Graduate School of Management and Department of Viticulture.
In 2012, there's no need to make a case for social media—it's ubiquitous, and the necessity of participating in those channels is recognized by many wineries. However, the wine industry is very different from other marketplaces, so social media needs to be approached in a unique way. From a business standpoint, we have a challenge because there are 130,000 domestic and imported wines introduced every year, and there are very few companies with significant market share. We're faced with a market that is incredibly fragmented, making it difficult to develop any kind of brand loyalty.
Here at UC Davis Executive Education, we're pleased to announce that registration for the Wine Executive Program 2013 is now open. The program will be held from March 24-28 at our Gallagher Hall Facility. Over the past twelve years, over 700 wine industry executives have attended this unique and informative program.

Process by which organisms respond to external chemical stimuli by using the senses of taste and smell. Organisms detect chemicals in their surrounding environments by using special chemoreceptor proteins. In some organisms, these proteins are expressed on the surface of the cells that make up the epithelium of the nasal cavity (the olfactory epithelium) and the taste buds of the tongue. Thus, the two primary types of chemoreception are taste, or gustation, and smell, or olfaction. Aquatic animals and terrestrial species with mucus-secreting skins may possess chemoreceptors all over the body. For many animals, chemoreception is the most important means of receiving information about their surrounding environment. Chemoreception plays roles in finding appropriate food and in reproductive behaviour (see pheromone). It serves additional purposes in some animals; for example, in ants and bees, chemoreception enables the insects to distinguish members of the same colony from outsiders.

Zuma arrives in Ghana
Comment on this storyAccra - President Jacob Zuma arrived in Accra on Monday morning ahead of the inauguration of John Dramani Mahama as president of Ghana, the presidency said.
"President Zuma is accompanied by the Minister of International Relations and Co-operation, Ms Maite Nkoana-Mashabane," spokesman Mac Maharaj said in a statement.
"He is scheduled to return to South Africa tomorrow, January 8."
Mahama's National Democratic Congress won the December elections with 50.7 percent of the votes.
Earlier, Maharaj said relations between South Africa and Ghana
were excellent.
"Initially trade between the two countries concentrated on agricultural products, but since 2005 South Africa has begun to export value added manufactured capital goods to Ghana, reflecting the significant presence of SA multinationals in the Ghanaian economy."
During a private visit to South Africa late in December, Mahama met Zuma at his residence in Nkandla in KwaZulu-Natal. - Sapa

text: So I just wanted to say HI! I've been looking through threads and using it for research on my way here. I started this Saturday morning, the 31st, and am finding that if I weigh myself each day to see a change at least then I am confident to make it through the next. LOL So far in two days I've lost 8.2 pounds so I'm doing good for motivation. LOL I honestly did this so many years ago and don't have the book any longer, I am more or less going on memory and what I've read on here, but I am going to go hit up the local library and try to find an updated copy. I dropped from 308 to 231 on my own, just changing portions and food intake and minimal exercise. I had some medical issues and was put on a high dose of steroids so just got back up to 252.2. I really need a boost to get my motivation back and so far this seems to be it. I'm excited to see how much success I can have! Nice to meet you all!

Anti-Abortion = Anti kill a baby! Pro-life, pro-unborn human rights.
Life Begins at conception, Mothering begins at conception!
"Today I will be better then I was yesterday"
Remember that everyday is a new day and every min is a opportunity for change.
I am pro-life and pro-unborn human rights, I drawl no line between our unborn stages in development and Born stages in development! At the moment of conception we are all created equal and Good, life must be equally protected in our unborn stages as it is when we are Born!

Youth Outreach
The pro-life position is not anti woman, we are anti kill a baby! THe most innocent among us all!
In fact if life did not begin at conception and the unborn was merly a lifless blob then we would not be anti abortion eather!
In order for an abortion to take place a unborn baby, Human life must die!
Abortion = a dead baby! it can equate to nothing else!
We believe in Womans rights, but not at the expence of the Unborn Human beings Human rights!

By LARRY VAUGHT
Kentucky coach John Calipari said he gave freshman Archie Goodwin " the information, what was out there, what we were told" before Goodwin put his name into the NBA draft.
"We sat down and talked to him and he came back and said he wanted to put his name in the draft and we said, 'Great, let's go for it,'" Calipari said Wednesday. " I'm not going to sit here and give you everything I said or my opinion because I don't think it's fair but they get everything they need and whatever decision they make – I've been on the phone right now with probably five or six NBA teams about Archie.
"You think about it, basically, if you draft him he's 18 years old. You're getting a high school player, the old days when the high school player could come out, that's what you're getting. You may have players in that draft that are four years older than him. Think about what I'm saying, three years older than him.
"The whole point with him is where do you project him? Would it have been better for him and maybe for us if I had played him at point at the start of the year? Maybe, but at his age they're going to have a chance to mold him as a wing guard, point guard, whatever they want him to be. Workouts will be important for him but I think he'll be fine because if you have a good attitude and you truly have a huge work capacity like a Brandon Knight you're going to be fine. There may be bumps in the road but you will be fine. Someone will take him in a good position and he'll be fine."

On our last trip to NYC, last July, hooked on the TV show Project Runway, my partner and I went to Mood. Overwhelmed by the racks, bins and piles of fabric, we ended up with this beautiful plaid cotton, with the idea of making shorts for this summer.
I finally got the inspiration and time to make them, and this is what I came up with. The fabric is thick but airy and since no poly is added to it, I do not sweat whatsoever (despite the fact that I'm a hot weather loving kinda guy).
I found some great buttons and used a self drafted pattern.
The pockets are an idea from a book called "Making Trousers for Men & Women" by David Page Coffin.
The waistband was not sewn as a separate piece and Ban roll was used to stiffen it. (thank God for ban roll, it really solved all my waistband issues).
For the accents I used an olive green gabardine, and white poplin for the pocketing.
Cotton pre-folded bias tape was used on all seams
I still have to work on the flat felled seam, so any ideas are welcome.
Hope you like it and comment

Nadal also responded to his reported rift with his coach/uncle Toni: "I don't necessarily have to listen or take notice any more of what Toni says to me. I can make my own mind up now. Am I frustrated? That's not the right word. In a career you come back or you go down. This is not my best moment and I need a lot of things to change. Small things, but these can change a lot of things at the end of the day."

Too Much Too Soon for Rookie as U.S. Loses Fed Cup Final to Italy
Fernandez took a chance on Vandeweghe after a reportedly bad practice week from Melanie Oudin. Oudin has had a down year since her quarterfinal breakthrough at the US Open last year. Fernandez benched Oudin on Saturday, then on Sunday Oudin showed her veteran composure by not only upsetting Top 10er Francesca Schiavone but blowing out the Italian, allowing her only four games.

Vandeweghe Loses to Schiavone in Fed Cup Final Opener; Mattek-Sands Next
Vandeweghe is much like Oudin when she first appeared on tour — not in the best of shape, with a bit of a "gut" visible, and a poor mover. That changed for Oudin when she worked with her trainers to erase the extra body fat and gain speed. Hopefully that is ahead for Vandeweghe, and not just a reliance on a thumping serve and forehand.

Synopsis uitgever
A welcome return for Felix Castor... You'll literally find hours disappearing when turning the pages of The Naming of the Beasts, and afterwards you'll be clamouring for more. Carey's unique and eminently readable style, with his excellent command of concise description and dialogue lends itself perfectly to the pacing of the book, one that we found ourselves wanting to re-read as soon as we finished it. It's highly recommended for fans of the Castor books, and for those that aren't familiar with the character, we'd be amazed if it didn't entice you to pick up earlier entries from this grim and depressing, yet wholly engrossing series. At the very least, you might not look at London in the same way again. SciFi Now Like Humphrey Bogart meets John Constantine, Felix Castor makes for an enjoyably, untrustworthy guide through the undead-filled streets of London, as painted by Mike Carey ... huge verve and energy ... engaging and vivacious ... Carey has a fine e SFX Mike Carey's Felix Castor novels are something special ... the writing is just brilliant with each volume jam-packed with vividly descriptive prose, witty dialogue, clever phrases and some of the best similies/metaphors I've had the pleasure of reading ... Mike's books possess remarkable depth which applies to both the aforementioned characters and prose as well as dense plotting and highly creative supernatural elements that have their own scientific logic. In other words, reading most urban fantasy nowadays is like watching a movie trailer on your computer - short and fun, but unsatisfying - whereas the Felix Castor novels offer the full IMAX experience ... Mike Carey's Felix Castor novels are simply one of the best urban fantasy series on the market today ... ' FantasyBookCritic.blogspot.com: reviews of all five books 'The Naming of the Beasts is Mike Carey's best outing yet for Felix Castor. Book six cannot come soon enough as far as I'm concerned!' Graeme'sFantasyBookReview.com There are some authors that guarantee a good read. Mike Carey is one of them. His Felix Castor novels are edgy and realistic, portraying London and its surroundings in a way that makes you hurry past dark alleyways even faster than usual, your back hol Meer lezen...

Astoria Performing Arts Center Executive Director Taryn Sacramone will step down from her position to join the Queens Theatre as managing director.
Sacramone, who began at APAC in August 2005, helped the organization increase its budget fourfold and expand programming to include an after school playwriting program at IS 10 and a performance program for senior citizens.
"These programs mean a lot for the community and those who participate," Sacramone said. "I have so many touching and funny stories. I have a special place in my heart for these programs."
The participants in "Senior Stars" last summer sang everything from "Like a Virgin" to Britney Spears' "Hit Me Baby One More Time."
"It does a great deal for my self-esteem," participant Helen Gamblicher said last year. "I'm much more out there and I look forward to it each year."
Executive Director Ray Collum left the Flushing Meadows Corona Park-based theater in March and will not be replaced. Sacramone's position at Queens Theatre has been vacant for awhile.
"I am excited at the possibility to expand programing, taking advantage of the three stages and getting to know the Queens Theatre audience and introducing new audiences," Sacramone said.
During the last eight years APAC established a home theater at the Good Shepherd United Methodist Church and set up its offices at Kaufman Astoria Studios.
In 2012, USA Today named APAC a "Top Queens Attraction." Other publications gave the theater props as well.
In May, Sacramone was honored by state Sen. Michael Gianaris (D-Astoria) at the Women of Distinction Honors Ceremony in Albany.
In 2012, Sacramone was recognized with an Artistic Achievement Award by Assemblywoman Aravella Simotas (D-Astoria) and Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney (D-Manhattan, Queens) as part of Women's History Month.
"I know I represent the full board when I say that we are thrilled for Taryn and this wonderful opportunity. We know she will do an incredible job for the Queens Theatre," said Shelly Felder, the president of APAC's Board of Directors. "We know that because she's done an incredible job for APAC. It is that great work that leaves us in a position of strength, with an excellent staff and a committed board of directors. We wish Taryn the very best and look forward to the next great chapter in APAC's life."
APAC Artistic Director, Tom Wojtunik, is looking forward to announcing the 2013-2014 schedule in the upcoming weeks.
APAC's Board of Directors will be immediately commencing a search to find her replacement.

Recent Hana Reviews
Amazing Place
My husband and I stayed two nights at this beautiful house. It was everything we expected and more. The accommodations are wonderful and immaculately clean. You feel as if you are in paradise with the well manicured landscaping, incredible view of the ocean and fantastic sunrises. After visiting the many sights around Hana, we cooked out on the provided grill and just sat back on the deck and enjoyed the view and the sounds of the ocean. It was a great way to end a perfect day!
Perfect Getaway
Ditto to all the glowing reviews. We found Maria and her cottage to be delightful glowing stars in our getaway week! She directed us to the best Thai food ever, beautiful hikes and beaches and amazing, really amazing lemon bars and coconut ice cream at Glen's (try chocolate chili if you like a kick!) She has everything you need- first aid kit, cottonballs, safety pins, travel brochures, satellite TV, ........somewhere in the cottage. Pipwai Trail to the falls was awesome, and the Red Sand Beach was worth finding- not dangerous as touted if you have common sense and are careful. Thanks Maria!
Stay In The Suite!
My parents practically made us stay here and we are so very thankful we gave in to the pressure. The cottage, which seems to be most people's choice was not available, so we booked the suite for four nights. The suite is not, I repeat NOT, a 'lesser-than' option. The suite is beautiful and spacious, cool temperature, private and has a great view from the porch. We loved that we could sit on the porch, drink our coffee and the few cars that go by could hardly be seen. We could see the clouds turn pink and the stars twinkle as we ate our dinner listening to the waves - all on the porch.
The suite is well stocked and amazingly clean with everything you could need. Plenty of towels, and lounging room for reading, etc. Super comfy bed, many windows to let the breeze come through. After returning 'home' from our morning/mid-afternoon Hana adventures, we happily made our way down to Hamoa Beach, boogie board (provided with beach chairs at the suite) under arm, and would play in the waves until the sun went behind the mountain. The location makes this place sing... Hamoa Beach is a dream.
This place is in the perfect location and Sandi and Dan have seen to every detail to make the stay wonderfully comfortable and easy. Worth EVERY single penny. We certainly hope to return.
