I'm baaack! I returned from Hawaii last night but now that I'm back I'm a little sad that I left. Toward the end of my trip I was starting to get a little bored, but the moment I left I really appreciated the area. Anyway, I don't have my dock for my new camera right now so I can't post any of the pics that I took yet but here's one from my camera phone:






Anyway, here's a quick run-down of my week in Honolulu. I don't really know how else to elaborate and I don't even know if I remember everything :)

Friday - Before leaving, we partied at Boardner's for Maree's birthday. I wasn't in the mood to party much so I was a little bored.

Saturday - Maree and I arrived around 8-9 PM and since it was still Maree's birthday and the night was still young we decided to go out. We went to The W and got some drinks and danced. Met some people and tried to check out Oceans but it was too crowded.

Sunday - We ate breakfast at Zippy's and the rest of the day was pretty much a shopping day. We went to the Aloha Stadium to check out the swap meet. After that we checked out Ala Moana mall and the International Marketplace. At night we went to the Mai Tai Bar and got faded :) Then later that night we stopped by Diamond Head.

Monday - We picked up my cousin Meghan from the airport and did a little sunbathing on Waikiki beach. Did some more shopping at Ala Moana and hit up Da Big Kahuna and D&B that night.

Tuesday - My cousins and I went to lay out at the beautiful Waimea Bay in North Shore and stopped by the Dole Plantation and Haleiwa. The pineapples were delicious! Sadly, we didn't have time to do the maze.

Wednesday - We picked up the rest of my cousins' family at the airport and spent most of the day shopping. Hung out at Waikiki beach for a little bit, and then one of my cousins and I went to Lulu's that night.

Thursday - We spent most of the day boogie boarding at Waikiki. I got a tan and a bad cut on my foot from it >:( We stopped by Leonard's to get some malesadas and they were so delicious! We stopped by the Dole plantation again for my aunt and uncle to see. I was going to watch a movie with my cousin that night but some of the showings were too late for some of the people who were going so instead we hit up D&B again.

Friday - Sadly, my last day in Hawaii. I spent the morning jet skiing with my cousins and aunt and uncle. It was really fun!

I didn't get to try the shaved ice at Matsumoto's but maybe next time. I think the next time I go to Hawaii I will visit Kauai for a more tropical experience. I've already been to Maui. Honolulu was very city-like which isn't bad, but I think it can get boring fast, although the weather and the view was fantastic. It was also really fun to listen to Hawaiian accents and to look at hot Hawaiian boys :) There are so much more good looking guys there than here!!!
