Friday, Saturday, Sunday = Beach

A lot of our time the past few days has been spent on the beach, several different beaches. And we spent lots of time with the Hunters since it was the weekend and they did not have to work.

Friday we went to Waikiki beach and hung out for a while. We also did a lot of walking around the fancy shopping area down there. It was pretty fun. We had sushi for dinner and then went and got mochi ice cream for dessert. It was our first time to have it and it was good.

Saturday we went to Kailua. We rented kayaks and took them out into the ocean. We went to a little island that is a bird sanctuary and walked around. We canoed to another beach down the way that is supposed to be one of the better beaches in Hawaii. It was nice. One thing we did that I have wanted to do my whole life is bury someone in sand. We buried Justin and shaped the sand into a Merman (half mermaid half man). It was fun. We also had some awesome shaved ice yesterday. This is not the normal snow cone kind of ice you get in Northwest Arkansas. It is almost like ice cream it is shaved so fine. I don't like snow cones usually but this was awesome. I think you could make a killing in NWA with this.





Sunday we went to church with Justin and Heather. After church we went to an awesome place for lunch. It was a Dim Sum restaurant. This was Margo and I's first experience with dim sum and we really liked it. It was fun and the food was really good. After lunch, Margo and I went back to the beach for a few hours. One thing we will miss about Hawaii is all the different types of food and restaurants. We have tried lots of things we have never had before while here. We have enjoyed the food very much.



Tomorrow we head home. We have really enjoyed our time here. We did lots of stuff but there is so much more to do and see. But, it will be good to be home.

I always hate coming home from vacation. It is such a downer. Praying neither of you will feel like that. Be safe flying home!
