From Grads to Nomads

Jenn and I left for Hawaii last friday morning, after getting an awesome package for 4 days/3 nights to Honolulu. We were laying on the beach with our magazines by 11am on Friday, taking in the pleasantly warm ocean air and rays of sunlight. Friday night we had some delicious Thai food at Keo's, and hit the sack early. Saturday morning, Jenn's birthday we were up early to hike up Diamond Head crater, and after this we went back to the beach for more lounging before going for a scrumptious dinner at the Hula Grill, consisting of fresh Red Snapper with purple yams. Also creme brulee for dessert!

Sunday we did a kayaking tour, it was too rough out to paddle to the islands a mile offshore, so we went to a closer island, saw some Hawaiian birds ( one flew out of a hole in the ground almost into Jenn's foot!) and we went over very large waves in the kayaks ( we were the only kayak to not flip over!! Hurray for having some paddling skills!)

Oh and on Saturday night we tried to go dancing at Zanzibar, but the combination of bad 70's pop music, unknown R & B music, cheesy gold cat statues everywhere, and lots of navy men on leave was not the best combo, however we did have an entertaining few hours until we called it a night!

We had all day MOnday, did some boogie boarding ( I had a great wipe out involving pounds of sand accumulating in my bikini and hair) and we flew out at 1030pm. It was a fantastic girls getaway weekend!
