Paola Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 We arrived home a week ago having spent our two week summer holiday in Hawaii However I forgot to pack my Omlet t-shirt The weather was fantastic along with the locals, food shopping etc. If any of you guys ever get the chance I can strongly recommend it The only thing that was a little pain was that the locals thought that we were Australians On the last day we went on a helicopter trip around the island. My first ever time and I was completely blown away by it The pic is of Waikiki beach, we stayed in the left tower of the two main towers in the middle/right of the pic. The estate from the series Magnum PI. It made OH holiday seeing that In a harbour in Honolulu next to the Aloha tower you could feed the fish with fish food from a little vending machine The local birds would hang around underneath catching any that you dropped The Arizona in Pearl Harbour. We did Pearl Harbour on foot and was surprised on how moved we felt. This was taken on one of the north shore beaches. The Old Spice add was filmed on one of these beaches (I think!). DD2 loved her fresh flower leis. Of course a holiday is not complete without any chickens/cockerels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
