Honolulu, HI

Somewhere over the rainbow…

That reminds me so much of Hawaii! If you haven’t been yet, plan your next getaway here!! Such a naturally beautiful place with incredible history. We stayed at the Hilton Waikiki Beach which was perfect for us and a great location! You can spend some extra money and stay across the street at a resort right on the water if you wanted to wake up and see the ocean out of your window. Right across from our hotel was the ‘Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach and is one I would also recommend checking out! At the top of our list of things to do or see while there was to go to a luau. We were told by many of the locals that Paradise Cove was the one to see! Honestly, I imagine any luau you go to in Hawaii is going to be amazing though 🙂

We did the North Shore and Circle Island Tour that took us to visit a few really neat locations! I would definitely recommend taking a guided tour like this, it was 7 hours and I feel like it’s always the best when you can hear from the locals about special landmarks and their history.

Valley of the Temples Memorial Park

I had no idea how beautiful the Dole Plantation was going to be! These 3 photos are all from there. We took a tour of the garden and, of course, tried some of their fresh pineapple!

You have to see Hanauma Bay! It was my first time snorkeling and I was shocked when were swimming next to a turtle!!

Cheers!
