Mele Kalikimaka
I know, I'm extremely late on posting "Merry Christmas" from Hawaii, but even though it's now 2008, I still have that cheery Hawaiian Christmas song, Mele Kalikimaka, stuck in my head. I guess it's a good thing b/c it will remind me of the fun times we had in Hawaii... even if it was rather short.
We had a lovely time and despite some windy weather and rain, we made it to the beach three times, hiked Diamond Head, snorkeled Hanauma Bay, paid our respects to Pearl Harbour and checked out the North Shore with a cruisey drive around the island.

My Patriotic take at the USS Arizona Memorial:

I probably drank half my weight in fruity, tropical drinks but hey, it's vacation, and it was Hawaii... what else should I be doing, ha!
My favourite libation was the drunken pineapple... yum.
Or perhaps the tropical itch complete with a souvenir wooden back scratcher would tickle your fancy (I know, horrible pun)
I think from now on, when flying back to the US, we should stop over in Hawaii again... why this is the first time in three years we've done it this way, I'll never know!
