Hawaii! Part II

The kids loved the beach...we were there every chance we got. There was a great area where the water was only a couple of feet deep but the waves could still come in and out. The girls could safely boogie board and swim without me constantly telling them to come closer to the shore. I got a chance to work on my tan...hah!


Sarah was brave enough to try poi at the Polynesian Culture Center.




She was not a fan!



Everyone caught fish in the pond...except me. I tried for a really, really long time, too.





Dum Dum! give me some Gum Gum!




If you don't know what I'm talking about, watch A Night at the Museum...a must see!



We went on a tour of the Iolani Palace. It was beautiful. Definitely worth the ride on the city bus to get there but don't ask Sarah that question...she was not a fan of the city bus. I think she still has nightmares.





We took a circle island tour and this was one of the scenic stops near the north shore. Note that it is overcast and we look cold. That is because it was cold. Or we thought it was until we got back home and it was snowing.







This was another beautiful spot. Great for snorkling near the north shore.





YUMMMM! Last stop was the Dole Pineapple Fields. One of our favorite places.


Heading to the airport...in a limo! Everyone was sad to be going home. We had a great time. I was secretly glad to be headed home. Until I heard there was snow. The 3 hour drive at 11 pm wasn't much fun, either. The best part was getting into a tempurpedic mattress that had been chilled to 50 degrees and was solid rock!

Now the only question is "Where to next?"
