The Star and Strips

Weekend on Oahu
... " than any city on the Bis Island. It's hard to believe that a city like that can exist in the middle of the ocean. Parts of Oahu are also very green and off the commercialized road. Much of the TV series "Lost" is filmed here. We did get the chance to ...

Honolulu departure
Today is our first day of the Japan trip! It's been very exciting so far, even though we didn't get on the plane yet. This morning, everyone got there by 9:30 AM. The parents were sad and overprotective; it was kind of irritating. The parents and ...
Pearl Harbour
Visited Pearl Harbour, Iolani Palace apparently the only royal residence in the US of A, Aloha tower and harbour and downtown Honolulu, all very interesting plus the streets and sites were so quiet due to the Pro-bowl being on in the stadium - result for ...
Blue Velvet

Rici's Training hikes on Maui
... me, my backpack and the birds. It was actually very beautiful and I had fun and always felt safe. Unlike my fellow Oahu hikers who seemed to always have unexpected things happen to them. So I have now packed, unpacked and am re-packing..I have ...
Red takes a break
Red needed a little vacation from his regular travels (because he works so hard) and decided to visit the Island of Hawaii. But this trip was not all play because Red was going to visit the Volcanos and find out how the land masses were ...
One day past Hawaii !
We had a wonderful day in Honolulu....weather was beautiful.....since we have both been there many times, we didn't take an organized tour,. Instead we hopped a bus and went to Waikiki where we did a little shopping. We ended up in the middle of a lovely ...
Here she comes!
This is the longest wait for nothing that ever happened! The news this morning said that the storm would not hit until late today or even overnight and into Wednesday. We planned a day indoors but were pleasantly surprised over coffee at just ...
Back Home...
... me that the only Krispy Kreme is on Maui. One would think they would decide to build it on the more populated island of Oahu. Nonetheless, the guy told me people, like himself, actually take trips from Oahu just to buy these donuts! I may not fly ...
My first entry!
Well I am sitting on Fort Street Mall, writing this on my new laptop, Stephen. The sky is blue and it is raining...go figure. This happens a lot around here, but then again it only rains for about five minutes and then it stops and everything goes back ...
Hanging out with Slater and Occy
So I signed up for some surf lessons. The Star Beach Boys stole someones barn door for me to use as a board and we hit the waves....with the board being the size it was it wasn't too hard getting up. Waves were a pumping 3-4ft but there was still enough ...
Going to the beach!
We waited for Shannon to get home from work then we packed up the cooler and headed down to the beach! After a quick stop at the store to pick up some snacks we drove down to Sandy Beach Park, better known as Sandy's. We spent most of the afternoon just ...

Senior frogs
Shitty Frogs as I call it. Hoping for a night like Moose's we went out to Senior Frogs that also had $1 shots. Unfortunately the atmosphere was nowhere near as good. There were a bunch of guys just standing there staring as stuff, no movement. It was ...
Wandering...
The next few days were pretty laid back since Shannon had to work and we didn't mind being lazy. We went to the Ala Moana Mall and did some more shopping...mostly for surf wear! We spent some time at home checking email, reading books, and catching up on ...
SCUBA Diving
Ocean Life Aaron, Theo, their dad Orvel Ray, and I went to the other side of the island to Kona. It's the leeward side of the ocean, so it's much less rainy than Hilo. What a relief. We are staying at a condo and doing a lot of SCUBA diving. We rented ...
