Hawaii during the day. Day 1

My first touches of Waikiki sand.
Beautiful, soft, warm sand.
Paradise for this Cali raised girl








Cruzin' topless. No better way to travel while on vacation.

{Sans kids}





The Puka Dog {more on that later}

My new favorite treat!







Iron wood trees. They are amazing! They reroot themselves back into the ground, so their roots are seen from the outside!
Tell me that mother nature isn't cool!
{all over the islands}












A weird contraption you ride in the surf.
One of a kind, almost like an exercises bike tricked out so it glides across the water. You bounce up and down, and try to stay up as long as you can. {like the idea behind surfing}
good luck with that guys! pretty funny to watch:)




Well that sums up daytime of day one, i hope this gives my girl friends some insight into what Waikiki holds for them!

to tide you over

for those who want to see something- anything Hawaii, this will have to do till i get it together.
{i know your all just dying to see me in a swimsuit}

since that's pretty much all i ever wore, most of the pictures are of me in one.

our first whole day on Oahu, we put the top down on the car and rode around the island in our suits stopping at as many lookouts as we could. hence the burns covering the tops of our legs, shoulders, heads & chests. way too much fun! we blared the local radio station and enjoyed some truly soothing island tunes. the perfect start to our vacation together.

{btw- this picture is before my hair bleached out from the sun!}

deviled egg farts

mom: "peeewwww! you stink!"

14 year old: "do you think my farts smell as bad as old flower water? "

mom: " yes son. i think they smell worse!"

14 year old: "cooool... " big grin

gotta love him:)

Aloha people!
You won't be hearing from me for the next week.
Hopefully I'll come back with freckles on my face,
tan on my back and
relaxation written all over me.
