Hawaii Update

Hello Everyone! I thought it was about time to share some of Hawaii with you. As most of you already know we went on a 10-day Hawaiian cruise this month. We spent 5 of those days at sea and the other 5 in Hawaii. The cruise was a good way to see different islands in Hawaii and find the places we liked the best. In all we went to three of the islands (The Big Island, Maui and Oahu). On the big island we went to Hilo and Kona. Hilo was great to see the Volcano National Park, the rain forest, black sand beaches, and waterfalls. Hilo however was very rainy and not a great place for the beaches. Kona was great for the beaches and had a wonderful brewery that served excellent food and had awesome beer!

We ended in Oahu (Honolulu) and it was fun seeing the city, Waikīkī Beach and Pearl Harbor. However our favorite Island and the one we will be most likely returning to next summer in Maui.

In Maui we loved the beaches. It had excellent snorkeling with huge sea turtles. The city of Lahaina was awesome. My dad, brother and I went fishing one day while Christina, Natalie and my mom went to the aquarium. Overall we saw very little of Maui, but really loved what we did see and want to go back to explore more soon.

Below are some pictures from the trip. Who is ready to go back with us next year???
