Hawaii, Part One

I figured I’d better post something to prove we’re really here! I was scanning through my spam filter this morning before deleting, and found this comment:

Its like you read my mind! You appear to know a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with a few pics to drive the message home a little bit, but instead of that, this is magnificent blog.

So here are a few pics.

First up, the Aquarium:

This is one wired family. Here we are researching lunch possibilities. Huck is on the phone with somebody important, I think.

And…the decision was the Rainbow Drive-In, for some local plate lunches.

The Dole Plantation. I didn’t get any photos inside the maze. Just imagine standing in front of your hedge. This is the world’s largest maze. A couple of us conquered it. The rest of us needed a rum drink after about 2/3 of the maze.

Plantation garden shots:

Cousins solving the problems of the world:

Shrimp truck! This was the highlight of the north shore excursion. Garlic shrimp!

Luau!

Sunset!

Malaekahana beach! This isn’t the calmest beach here by far, but the kids (older and younger) had a blast riding the waves, and we almost had the whole beach to ourselves.

Shave ice!

The end, for now; today is a pool/relax day. Tomorrow we tour Pearl Harbor and the Missouri. More great big fun!

Is that enough pics?
