At Last!
At Last! After a few months of planning and development, Hawaiian Dream.net is live! In the coming months, as new content is created and the community grows we will try to provide you with a simple interface for getting information on Hawaii. Maybe what you read or see here will help you plan your next trip. We are excited to see where this site will take us. Come on in! The sun is shining, the sky is blue, and the water's warm. :)
Beautiful Sandy Beach
You have to kayak out to Flat Island to check out it's tiny pristine beaches. It's located on Oahu's East side near Kailua.
Palm Trees Sunset
Here's a sunset picture of some big palm trees at sunset on Waikiki Beach. I took this from a balcony at our hotel right above the
Ala Wai Harbor at Night
Located in Honolulu, this small boat harbor promises some great photographs at anytime of the day or night. You can access it
Crowded Waikiki Beach
Waikiki Beach can become quite crowded in the middle of the day. It's not so bad if you go earlier in the morning or at night.
Dolphin Ferarri
The Christian Riese Lassen art gallery in Honolulu has this Ferrari with a fantastic paint job of dolphins. It's been a couple years, but
Turtle Bay Resort
The Turtle Bay Resort on the Northeast side of Oahu is a well maintained resort with a golf course and immaculate beaches.
At the top of Diamond Head
You will have to walk thousand of steps to get to the top but the view from there is amazing. Just wear comfortable shoes.
Jet Skiing
This is supposed to be fun....wasn't so for me as I could hardly hold on to my sister...I am not even talking riding that thing
Back in Alaska
We have made it back to our home after traveling on Hawaiian Airlines. Even though a tropical vacation is a relaxing and rejuvenating experience, there is nothing like coming home. We had a wonderful time and wished it went a little longer since the last 3 days were nice and sunny because the weather cleared up. I'll be posting up pictures, videos, reviews, and travel tips soon. If anyone is going to Hawaii, this is the perfect site to share your trip with family and friends. I received many compliments from people that have followed my travel blog.
Sailing on a Catamaran
Today, we went sailing on a catamaran and saw humpback whales and some dolphins, but they were too far away for a good photo. We used the last day of our Oahu Go Card to spend 4 hours on the open ocean with Makani Catarman. It was a blast! I've never been on a sailboat before and have always wanted to try. The sea was not very choppy and we didn't get wet from any waves. Bummer!
Kayaking Adventure
Today we drove to the East side of Oahu and hung out in Kailua for most of the day. I really like this town and it's big enough to have a Macy's. We rented out a kayak from Kailua Sail Boards and wheeled it down to the beach. We decided to paddle around the canal for a bit to get our "sea legs". It rained on us pretty hard and it was windy and cold. It was miserable until we decided to head to the open sea and try it out.
Rainy and Cold
Since it's the winter season in Hawaii, the nice weather can be a hit or miss. The last couple days have been a miss with inconsistent rain and some chilly weather. It's not as chilly as Alaska, but today I was getting goose bumps in Hawaii for the first time ever. I didn't think to bring a sweat shirt or anything with me today, so I had a few moments of goose bumps. Let's hope the weather clears up for the last 4 days of our stay here so I can get some Vitamin D...lol.
