Once again, Pramod and I are astounded by the generosity that we have been shown. As many of you know, we are staying in Hawaii for 2.5 months. Our car, however, is staying in California parked on the street of my Grandma's brother's house. John and Kathy are very sweet to let us do this because 1.) it's a little bit of an inconvenience to have an extra car around all the time, 2.) to my recollection, I have never even met these relatives of mine. In addition to this, they are out of town and they left a key for us so that we could crash at their house. The house is wonderful! They have a pool, a gorgeous view out their back, access to laundry and a kitchen, and space to take over while we unpack and repack. We thank John and Kathy for saving us worry, hassel, and money trying to find something else to do with the car!
In addition to their generosity: their neighbor, who let us into their house, gave us some champagne and seriously offered to take us to the airport at 5:30 am! When we declined, he gave us the number of someone who regularly does airport shuttling and he is also John and Kathy's friend. That's who we got to take us. When we arrived at the airport, Jerry rejected our offer of payment! Who are these people and why are they being so giving to strangers? “We are blessed”: Pramod's words when we thought about all that generosity. We really are!
