Hawaii....continued!

Bill and I had a wonderful trip to Hawaii.  It was just what we needed to relax!  We went to oodles of beaches, ate good food, went kayaking (sadly we didn't see a turtle but Bill did while he was swimming), drove around in a fun convertible, and lamented about how easy everything was before we had kids!  But the next minute missed them terribly!  When were waiting in the airport to come home we thought more than once about the fact that the Navy is willing to pay us to live in Hawaii....and we are going to D.C.....huh?  I was influenced by too much sun and pineapple juice! It was hard not to be! 

 I have a new theory....food from a truck HAS to be good!  We had some huli huli chicken and shrimp here and it was delish!  

 This is taken at the Polynesian Cultural Center.  It was a really neat show.  I think Addi would have really liked learning about the dancers!  

 One of the dancers even looked a little like Addi!  

 Bill lookin cute in our ride!  It was a convertible...super fun...except when it was raining!  It didn't rain too much but we were caught in it more than once.  

 We spent a lot of time on bases on the beaches there...it was so much less crowded!  On the Marine Corps base we found a coconut on the beach.  Bill shucked it (he learned how at the polynesian cultural center) and we drank the warm water from it!  I was SUPER impressed!  It was the highlight of my day for sure!  I am TOTALLY convinced that Bill is Hawaiian.  He is SO happy there....he has Aloha in his blood....for real....Bill was born at the big pink hospital on the hill!!!

We did a little snorkeling at Hanauma Bay which is one of my all time favorite things to do! It was pretty much as I remembered it.
 

 Before we headed to the airport we toured a coffee factory....Lion  Coffee company....it was SO cool.  It smelled so good and we learned a lot.  Our tour guide was so sweet. She even sent me a cool coffee bag she had at her house!  How sweet was that!
