Jess and I just booked our vacation to Hawaii! We went two years ago with friends of ours. Our friend Jenny just told us that she and her sister are going for a month and leaving January 18th. She said they got an amazing deal, so we decided to look into it.

Well, the price was right, and we're going for a week! We leave the same day that they do, and we have the same flight and seats near each other. We come back a week later, while they stay on and enjoy it for another three, haha.

I called my mother, and she said that she and my grandmother might want to join us. That would be amazing! They've been through a lot this year, and they definitely deserve a vacation. I really hope they decide to come.

I can't wait... and I can't believe it's coming up so quickly! And I'm super extra excited, because Jess has a sweet new camera. The pictures are going to be amazing!

Woohoo! Sorry; I just had to share my excitement!

We're staying on Oahu this time. Last time, we took a day trip to Kauai, which was incredible. This time, the budget is tighter, so we're just going to sit our read ends on the beach for a week and maybe snorkel at Hanauma Bay. Not too shabby

I love Hawaii and would love to go again.
Kauai was great when we went there.
We want to go to Kona and Hilo next time.
Have a great time.
I have been to 3 islands and loved them all.

Yeah, I think you'll be alright!


Hawaii is wonderful, and I'm very jealous of you right now! Have a great trip!

Over the river and through the woods...
I was there...lord, 7 years ago, and they used to have an awesome flea market at the stadium in Honululu. It was only one the weekends, but you can get some great souveniers at a fraction of the cost in the stores. If they still do that definitely check it out! They also had a lot of cultural shows that were free. In fact, I was dragged up on stage to learn to "hula" at a free show in one of the malls. Yeah, I have pics but I'm not sharing.
.

I'm so happy for you!! I loved Hawaii and want to go back so bad. The only reason I got there in the first place was it was a business trip so I didn't get to relax or do half the things I wanted to (but the boss was paying for it, so who can argue??).

You and Jess will have a great time! Can't wait to see the pics!
