Lost in Hawaii

Okay folks, here it is. The moment you've all been waiting for! My LOST experience. In other words, if you have no interest in the show, stop reading now; it'll be a waste of your precious time.

So as I mentioned earlier, we attended the Hawaiian International Film Festival. The creators, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse were given awards. They were two very funny guys I might add.

For just being the creators of the show they're two very well known guys. So the emcee asked what that was like. Carlton (yeah, we're on a first name basis now, sometimes I just call him Carl) responded with a story about being in a grocery store. He said this lady just kept looking at him, and looking at him. Finally she approached him and asked, "Are you Ted Danson?" I got a good laugh because he kind of does look like Ted Danson.

Then they brought out four cast members. Recognize these folks?

Terry O'Quinn (John Locke)

Jorge Garcia (Hurly)
Yunjin Kim (Sun Kwon), sorry for the blur, she was clapping and this is the best I got.

And my most favorite, Michael Emerson (Benjamin Linus). This dude has some of the best one liners and he delivers them so well. He looks like he has a growth on his cheek and I'm not entirely sure why.

They did a short Q & A with all of them and showed some old clips. Finally, they gave us a little tidbit into this season: Ben will get beat up a lot more, hehe.

Now, see if you recognize these two places at Kualoa Ranch:

If you knew this place, you're good! It's Hurley's golf course.

This next one is easier.

This is from the Jughead episode where they bury the atom bomb.

And as I said previously, we accidentally found this little gem:

We drove past this YMCA and I jokingly said, "Look, the Dharma Camp!" And then Bret said, "I really think that's it." Then I spotted all the props kind of stashed back behind the yellow tape and picket fences in the second picture and I knew it. I wish we would have gotten out and walked around a bit, but there were kids there doing some obstacle course deal. So I had to be content to snap a few pictures and go.

That's all folks!
