7 days in a tropical paradise ~ HAWAII
On the 7th August we took a flight over to Hawaii on route to Australia.
We have friends over there so the plan was to stay with them and catch up as well as enjoy the beauty that is Hawaii!
We had a fabulous 7 days and saw many wonderful things!
The highlights for me was the drive up the North Coast, seeing green sea turtles in their natural habitat and some gorgeous island scenery.
We also enjoyed the day at the Polynesian Cultural Center, which saw hubby & I renew our wedding vows in a traditional Tahitian ceremony! It was a great experience to have!
The boys and Hubby enjoyed surf lessons on Waikiki beach, while Mitchell built sand castles and I took photos.......even if some were of the wrong man, thinking it was my husband! lol
We visited the Kualoa Ranch which is famous for many Hollywood films. We took the movie set tour and even got to have a photo taken where the scene from Jurassic Park was filmed by the fallen tree! Again a beautiful scenic place to visit and the kids really loved seeing all the movie sets and some props!
Hubby & I were very fortunate and thankful to our friend for having the boys one of the days, so we could fly over and explore the Big Island. We hired a convertible and cruised around to some fantastic places, like the Southern most point of the USA and the Volcanoes National Park. We walked through a lava tube, onto solid lava and even put our faces over active steam vents! It was a really great, long day exploring, kidfree!!!
