Great to have wifi,found this a problem in UK and Paris. Had to re- register every 24 hour in our hotel in Paris.
Sounds wonderful, enjoy.
Hally, have you got the iPad camera connection kit, I loved it for transferring my photos while OS, also lovely looking at photos on iPad.

So quiet night in, dh gone to get pizza,yes more fat.... But pizza is the better of the evils. LOL
Sitting on the balcony, sun setting, hotel next door has great band playing so enjoying that.

Up early for snorkeling tomorrow.

Aloha & Mahalo, which is hat they would say.

I love reading of your adventures Hally and the food there.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Got up really early today to go snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, fantastic, swam with the fish and turtles, it was amazing.

Came home lunchtime, wentu out for brunch as ds was dying with lack of food, even thiugh he had a museli bar and a hot dog. The restaurant was a 20 minute wait so managed to buy a dress while ds & dh waiting!! So cool.

The traffic lights crack me uo, they have a light of a white man walking to cross, so i tell dh & ds cross now "white man walking" we always crack up,  we get odd looks, nit sure why!LOL

Lunch well we ordered an appetiser to share, it was huge, chicken quesadellas, the guacamole was yum.

Did some more shopping, then booked ds in for a one on one surf lesson at waikiki beach tomorrow.

Love the shops and the people.

So tomorrw just hanging at the beach, floating in tubes.

On the balcony waiting for the fireworks from the hilton then of to dinner at siome " portioned controlled organic restaurant" shoud be good.

Yes Robyn packing in as much as poss.
The restaurant last night was lovely busy vibe and the food amazing, we all loved each ane very bit, the downside $40 in taxis, so glad we went hough.

Today ds has his 1st surf lesson, so proud he stood up and rode most his waves to the end. Ok waves not big here but we were the proudparents, went to buy the cd of the 59 photos and the chip wasnt working, they are hoping to try it out on another computer tomorrow.

Down to rumfire in our hotel tonight as we have a day out at wet n wild tomorrow.

Still loving Hawaii

Went to tne kahala last night, the poshest hotel on tne island. The food the best we have had here, we went by limo it was only $15 more, stretched and streched, 2 tvs, seating at the back and the front and a sofa up the side, about another 1/2 length of limos out here. It was great. Shopping today then the beach later.
