Greetings from O'ahu!

A little babymoon for us before it is too late for me to fly! We went to O'ahu for a weekend and enjoyed the discounted rate at the Marriott in Waikiki. It's been a while since we were there last time and it was good to be back! We went shopping at Ala Moana Mall, which is HUGE! I got my fill of retail therapy and I think Kel did too! We walked back to Waikiki and stopped for dinner at an Indian Restaurant. Brought back memories from working at Ma'alaea Masala... It was really good! Next day we decided to take the bus to the North Shore so Kel could skim Waimea Bay. It took a loooong time to get there! Two hours later we got off in Haleiwa for some lunch. Then Waimea! Wohoo! The weather was a little tricky, but we got some sunshine in between. After almost two hours on the beach we had to start making the long journey back to town. But alas! Skimboards are not really allowed on the bus... So we were denied. Stuck on the North Shore.. There are plenty of places worse to be stuck at, but how were we to get back into town? We walked to the next bus stop and waited..and waited.. and hoped that the next bus driver would be nicer. And he was and we began the long road back around the island. We finally came back to Honolulu and decided to meet up with my good friend Ashley. A quick and for the most part, useless dinner later we went to a nice wine bar across from our hotel. Soda for me of course.. It was really good to see her so we stayed out a little later than we had planned...
Then it was Wednesday and time to go home and back to work! It was an awesome weekend!!
