Blogs from Waikiki, Oahu, Hawaii, United States, North America

Hey everyone! This blog is going to be super short... I'm using Katie's laptop and internet here is ridiculously expensive!

Fully fledged rainforest jungle over there and it was quite nice. Would have been good to do some hiking but that was not our situation. We are really getting into the swing of things now – and we leave tomorrow morning …….. Oh well. Highlight of the day was Chris helping a lady with directions to find the bus. Nice touch. She even got it right. For the surfers among us, we swung by Sunset Beach, Bonzai Pipeline and Waiamea Bay. Couldn’t stop there as traffic was jammed ... read more
