Aloha!!!

Down town Waikiki Gordons shoes and the poolMy first time at the beach.My quesadillas were purple-the dough was made from some kind of root.This was a prince of Hawaii who was a remarkable likeness of Higgins from Magnum P.I

Me at china mans hat.
You can swim out to the island and climb/hike to the top.

This was the beach that 10 cow women was filmed at a.k.a pounders. Gordon and our friend/tour guide did go and get pounded....

I don't remember the name of this place but
I love that you can see the lava flow before it cooled.

My sweet and I on our way up to hike Mona falls.
We loved all the hiking and wished we had time for more!

Gordon and I in front of China mans hat.

Sunset beach on the North Shore (my favorite place on the island)

The top of our hike.

I don't remember the name of this place either
but the water was especially beautiful.

Chillin' at sunset beach.

The most breath taking place!
We hiked up to the East most point on the island
(it's where people whale watch in the winter).

Gordon and I had always planed to go to Hawaii for our 10 year anniversary which was this last March, but because we moved into our new home we decided not to go. Then 4 weeks ago Gordon had the opportunity to go on business and I jumped on the chance to go too...it's still our 10th year of marriage so it counts!
Gordon did have to work 1 full day and then 2 2hour days so we got a lot of holiday in!
It's still all a blur right now, maybe I should have Gordon write about it...Babe, what do you say?

A special thanks to my Mom for coming in and staying with our kids while we were gone.
We really, really appreciate it!!!!
