We're back! Now I understand why people who have lived in Hawaii love it so much. We stayed in Laie on the north shore, right by BYU-Hawaii and the Polynesian Cultural Center. We stayed for seven days and enjoyed sun (I did not get sunburned - quite a feat for skin like mine), the waves, the sand, the cool breeze, snorkeling, shave ice, and Polynesian culture at the PCC.Awesome experience (except for the red eye flight on the way home. I don't do well with little sleep).
To get a better idea of the beautifulness we experienced, check out the pics below!
The perfectness of Waimea Bay. Christian and I snorkeled there and saw a sea turtle! The snorkeling at Shark's Cove was our favorite though.

Now back to the daily grind, but it's good to be back. A fun summer in Utah awaits...

Yeah!!! I'm so glad you got to go to Hawaii!!!! It is a wonderful place :) I miss it too. Looks/sounds like you had a great time. Glad you made it back safely even if you didn't get much sleep.
ReplyDeleteSo fun! Looks like you had a super time. I think the shaved ice would have been my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty impressive not getting sunburned at all.
