Even though certain bloggers may be boycotting me (ahem, Erin) because I recently went to Hawaii, I think I’ll talk about it again today. Just because, you know, I can. And it’s time for the week recap and I was in Hawaii for at least part of the week, so I think it counts.
But don’t worry, this post has more pictures than the last post about Hawaii.
**Speaking of pictures, Sarah insisted that I get an Instagram account, so now I have one. I have no idea how to use it or what it really does, but I did manage to post some pictures and I’ll probably soon be obsessed. Am I allowed to post random pics on my phone that I took a year ago? I don’t know the rules of this thing. Someone tell me, please. Also, you’ll probably want to follow me so you can see my exciting pictures of the little Monster (my dog, obviously.)
Now, about Hawaii.
(In pictures.)
// View from Diamond Head. We hiked up there to see views of Honolulu. There was a lighthouse. I am OBSESSED with lighthouses. Fun fact, Celine Dion owns a house on Oahu.
// Date night!
// World’s largest maze. Notable because, guys, IT’S THE WORLD’S LARGEST MAZE! And also because it proved once and for all that I have a better sense of direction than the Husband.
// Rum drinks. This is how I get most of my recommended daily servings of fruit.
// View from our hotel room. No filter necessary. (I could tag it this way on Instagram, too! Note to self…)
// Shoreline. 90 miles on Oahu (I think… may need to fact check this one, but let’s just go with it for now).
// Waikiki beach!
// Tropical. We kayaked to a pretty little island and I made the Husband take a picture of my back because it was too sunny and I kept squinting in the front-facing pictures. Sorry for the butt shot.
// My vacation buddy (aka, the Husband). See the island in the background? That’s where we kayaked to.
// Shave ice. We need this in Chicago, ASAP.
// Fireworks on the beach.
// My much-more-conservative beach picture. One-piece suits are in fashion now, right? Or am I getting old?
Random story: On the trip, the Husband actually asked me ‘Who’s Rihanna?’ This question stopped me dead in my tracks.
Ummmm…. what?! At that moment I felt like I didn’t even know this man at all, even after 6 months of marriage! Instead of educating him (because honestly, where do you start?!) I just ignored him until I could collect my thoughts.
I mean, it’s RIHANNA.
So I’ll leave you with a favorite (Rihanna) song of mine.
