Hawaii Trip for Two!

Well Blair missed out on our family trip to Hawaii last May so we used his ticket voucher and bought me a ticket and him and I were able to take a week long Hawaiin get away with just the two of us. We were gone from January 12-18. We had a lot of fun with just the two of us and got to do a lot of things we wouldn't have done with the kids.

 We took a self-guided tour of the submarine on Pearl Harbor and also the tour of the Battleship Missourri.

 We had a fun day at the Polynesian Cultural Center. Blair was a little tired of all the dancing by the time it came to the night show which consisted of more dancing.

 At the Tahitian Village they had the men get up and do a dance.

 At our Luau dinner we ended up sitting by another couple that was from Boise, ID and actually attended church with my cousin Evan. They were celebrating their 10th anniversary and we were making up for all our missed anniversaries. We had a fun time visiting and they were sweet enough to snap some pictures of us together. We also took some of them. They said the hardest thing about vacationing as a couple is all your pictures are of each of you separate and hardly any together.

 I can't remember what beach this was but we had gone to do some paddle boarding but we never could find the board shop so we finally gave up and enjoyed the sun and sand. Blair decided playing at the beach just wasn't as much fun without the kids.

 We had fun hiking Diamond Head the next day and then hitting Hanauma Bay for some snorkeling.

 Beautiful Views!

 Hanauma Bay was full so we went down the road to another beach and hung our for a few hours and then went back to the bay for some snorkeling.

 We tried doing some body boarding but the shale rocks would wash up on you so hard it cut up our feet and legs so I decided to lay out and get a tan and a nap. I'm on vacation!

Snorkeling was I think by far Blair's favorite activity of the trip. We had fun hitting some more beaches, eating delicious food, saw some movies, and just enjoyed walking the beach walk at night and enjoying the atmosphere and weather. It was a laid back fun trip and glad we had a chance to get away with just the two of us.
