We were so excited to head back to Oahu for Spring Break. This year we stayed at the Hilton on Waikiki. It is the largest Hilton resort in the world with restaurants, a private lagoon and an outdoor shopping village. Our room was great with deck and spectacular view of the ocean.
This trip felt relaxing because we ended up making plans as we went and didn't feel the need to get up and rush in the morning to get a spot at the pool (somehow Kallie always find one for us). We spent the fist morning with Bump and family at a sunrise Easter Service. After that we spent most of our time on the beach so Kallie could body surf, followed by afternoons at the pool and of course daily shave ice or smoothies to cool off. We became experts at riding the double decker bus to the heart of Waikiki for shopping, big waves and dinners out.
We did have a few adventures along the way. Dad went on a guided fishing trip for a day so we decided (well I decided for us) to hike Diamond Head which had way too many stairs but a gorgeous view! We took a road trip and did a ropes coarse as a family, I will admit it was much harder and higher in the air than I anticipated but we did it! We rented a stand up paddle board one afternoon, watched fireworks on the beach and the rest of the time we just enjoyed being on vacation. I am pretty sure we are all looking forward to our next trip, Oahu is definitely our happy place!
PS: You got stung by a jellyfish our last full day but you were a trooper - a little vinegar and an ice pack and you were back in the pool a few hours later. According the lifeguard it was a nasty sting!
