Hawaii!!!
I just spent the last 13 days in Hawaii. We had a great time and did lots of crazy things.
We left on June 10 and drove to Las Vegas. We ate at the MGM Grand Buffet and then chilled until we had to leave for our flight. We were on a red eye flight so that we could be in Hawaii early the next day. We stayed in Princeville Kauai for the first part of our trip. It was GORGEOUS! We did lots of playing on the beach and seeing the sights. We ate a couple of snow cones. The boys jumped off cliffs and we found a rope swing ( yes I did it once and only once, scared me to death). We also ate an amazing Mac Nut Milkshake. My favorite part of Kauai was watching the sunset at night and hanging with my family.
We then went to Molokai, while Kauai is green and lush Molokai is dry and barren. We have been to Molokai before and so I was ready to play. We had a few bumps in the road on this Island (i.e. dead mice in our oven) but it turned out to be great. My cousin Erin is engaged and we (my uncle paul and aunt wendy) surprised her by flying her fiance over to this island. We built towers in the water, snorkeled, and just played.
My families flight left earlier then my cousins so we headed out at 8:30 Hawaii time and traveled for 24 hours to get home. I am frequent flier after that day. Molokai to Laina (20 min flight), Lanai to Oahu (30 min flight), 3 hour layover in Oahu, Oahu to Portland Oregon (5.5 hour flight), 6 hour layover in Portland (yes we stayed at the hotel, and yes it was from 11 pm to 5 am), Portland to SLC (1.5 hour flight).
So to sum it up:
I played hard
Got tanner
Hung out with my amazing family (cousins, uncle, aunt, brothers, parents)
Ate way to many ice cream cones, milkshakes, and shaved ice.
Laughed until I cried
HAD A GREAT TIME!!!
