Oahu Condos Reviews and Rates

Today dedicated to Remembrance Week

The tour bus arrived promptly at 6:15am, just before dawn. The irony: I was on my way to Pearl Harbor at exactly the same time that six Japanese aircraft carriers turned into the wind and launched their planes. That was 70 years ago, almost to the day. Another generation's 9/11, but worse.

It was really a brillantly planned attack. The …

White Paw, Pink Paw

Sunburns. Ouch. They hurt, A LOT!

Guess what? I'm sunburnt... but it was worth it!!! The day before I left I decided I'd better get down to the beach, I mean it's HAWAII!
So I took a walk from my hotel to the beach, which happened to be a 30 second walk from the front of the hotel to the beach! I took a swim out to the small platform …

Luau

Dnes je nas posledny den pred odchodom. Pri rannej prechadzke sme nasli jednu velmi dobre vyzerajucu Japonsku restauraciu a tak sme tam hned skocili na obed.

Stanka mala rybu a Mozi Menchanko. Miestnu specialitu. Teda, nie Havajsku miestnu, ale miestnu pre tuto restauraciu.

Cestou na obed sme este stihli koncert Royal Hawaiian …

Film Sets, Diamond Head and Turtles

DAY 4 (Tuesday) - Beep Beep BEEP!! AGAIN!! There is something seriously wrong with getting up at 6am for 3 out of 6 days of your island vacation. Seriously wrong! But alas we were up and we were out. We grabbed the world's worst coffee and most sugary blueberry-less blueberry muffin I have ever tasted and were on the bus (not coach coz it didn't …

Day 1

Me, my Mum (who was growling at the crying babies all the way up the front of the plane) and my Dad (who was watching Dr Who on his IPad) tossed and turned aggressively in our seats in a cheap Jet Star plane that rumbled and buzzed. My sister, Alyssa was the only one sleeping soundly. This was probably the worst flight I've ever been on besides …

Swimming with tutrtles day 2

after a lazy rest day on the 5th, we decided to have one last trip to Hanahuma bay - and great joy, found the turtles again! I have a wonderful experience of finding julie apparently filming some fish, only to turn around in the water to find a sea turtle next to me! they are really beautiful creatures. can't upload a video today, since the …

Lichtschutzfaktor 50

Nach dem Duschen in einem supersauberen Bad (Danke Jonah!) mit Nickie zum Hostel-Fruehstueck, das kostenlos angeboten wird. Besteht zwar nur aus Kaffee und Toast, aber es reicht, um den Tag zu beginnen!

Danach hab ich mich sehr verantwortungsvoll mit 50er Sonnencreme eingesprueht (gibt's alles kostenlos am Front Desk von Leuten, die ihre …

Honolulu another skip in the pond

After a flight delay of 75 minutes we boarded for the first leg our flight. Destination Honolulu Hawaii.

We lifted off light normal heading north out of SFO. as we approached The City of San Francisco we made a slight bank to the left and headed west for five hours and four minutes to HNL.

The flight was normal, however our 75 …

The Longest Day...

For us, Saturday 3rd April was 43 hours long. We were flying from Tokyo to Hawaii and if we ever needed proof we can't cope with jet-lag, this was it. By the time the plane landed in Honolulu, we had morphed into Manga characters. Our limbs were shrunken through lack of use and our heads had ballooned to the size of beachballs. Our eyes now covered …

Day two, a trip to the north shore

We drove up around the island, past Pearl Harbour to the North Shore where we spent some time on the beach. The wave action was pretty intense with warnings posted but we found a corner of the bay where the reefs inhibited the wave action and we went body surfing. I think we will buy some body boards in Maui - they look fun for beginners. It was …
