Our Community Group Christmas Party

Christmas at our House

We had a great time decorating this year. We got our first tree and purchased a few more things to add to our humble collection.

Our hotel and beach

Monday-Our Last Day

Our last night in Hawaii


26 weeks along hanging out on Waikiki Beach

Eating out

Sunday-Tour of the Island

Hanauma Bay, famous for amazing snorkling


Waiamea Bay, famous for huge waves in the winter season
Sunset Beach, famous for something
One of our stopping points to get out of the bus and take pictures...not sure where we are but it is beautiful!

Saturday-Pearl Harbor

Friday-Polynesian Center

We spent the entire day at the Polynesian Center learning about 7 different islands and their cultures. Because it was such a long day, Bill rented me a wheelchair because I had a lot of ankle swelling going on while in Hawaii. P.S. Cankles make quite a fashion statement, especially with a skirt or capris.

Thursday-Thanksgiving Day

Bill, Tifiny, and their Dad hiked Diamond Head volcano during the day. Vida and I layed out on Waikiki beach and read books and drank cokes, and Esteban snorkled Hanauma Bay. We all went on a dinner cruise that evening and had a traditional Thanksgiving day meal and danced the night away.

Wednesday-Snorkling in Kaneohe Bay

We spent the day anchored at an amazing sandbar in Kaneohe Bay. Some played volleyball, I ventured out up to my waist (the water was shockingly cold) and we also had hamburgers on the grill for lunch on the catamaran. We snorkled at a live reef and we also saw a dozen sea turtles or so.
