Kona is an absolutely awesome place -- especially compared to Honolulu, or really anything on Oahu.
I wish I could recommend renting a 4WD vehicle and going to the top of Mauna Kea, but unfortunately there's just not a whole lot to do up there -- you can look in on a couple of the telescopes, and drive around the top between all of the telescopes, but that's really about it. It's not as impressive as it really ought to be.
I'd definitely recommend driving around the island, though; it's a good way to spend a day.
See? I asked myself, when I made that comment, if you'd go there. Silly me.
No, actually, I think you look better with the arms attached. I was thinking of the *paintings*, not the sculptures. Something more like this, but with a bathing suit, and as a brunette...
Aww. :) I used to always want to grow my hair that long, but it sadly only goes to mid-back. Ah well. Given the trouble Aphrodite had with her lovers, perhaps I should be glad that I'm not her. :D
Also, hooray for the Italians and their appreciation of well-fed women.

Hope you two have a good time! :)
