Quickie

I am in Waikiki with mom, visiting Danny and mostly eating fish for meals not including the cookies from the Honolulu cookie company. I've not gotten into a bathing suit though it seems that there aren't many rules for suiting up here. earlier today we hiked to Manoa Falls and we were drenched in sweat. it was the longest, most "strenuous" hike I've done in easily 20 years unless you combine all of the walking I've done combined in that same amount of time.

I miss Bella mostly. Hannah doesn't even know I'm gone. All of my photos are on Facebook so far and inside my camera. we went to the north shore yesterday and watched surfers. some of those young men are very tan.

Please excuse all the errors. I'm using mom's iPad. The keyboard is aa bitch.

Ooh, Honolulu Cookie Company cookies are so good! Love that you can sample every time you walk into their store (which we did on a daily basis).

Very tan surfers? I like your version of sightseeing!

Oh - maybe the iPad keyboard needs a meeting? ;)

Sounds like my kind of sightseeing! (minus the sweaty walking part....)
Glad you are enjoying yourself!

What I wouldn't give for some cookies, sun, and tan surfers right now!

screw the cookies! - Go swim in the ocean! I Googled Waikiki (never been there) and the water looks so wonderful!

My personal fav is body surfing in mild surf, or just letting the swells carry me - you know, when it lifts you up and you slide down the other side - it's my relaxation meditation vision.

me? I shoveled slush all day! (OK - for 3 hours)

You're doing great...hiking and all that. Did you ever go to the Hawaiian Cultural Center? I'll have to check Facebook for the pics.

I used to live on the North Shore at Sunset Beach. Not far from the Banzai Pipeline. That was in another life. I loved Hawaii but not my life there.

Hey! I've been reading back through and catching up. I'm glad you're in Hawaii having fun, and sorry to hear about your friends. Many hugs your way if you want them.

Vacation! Yay! Of course I had to climb out of the gutter to read your post as I thought the title of your post meant something else entirely! *grin*
