polynesian center and misc.



A view from on top of one of James' sites. My dad will appreciate the golf course right next to the ocean.

These trees were so cool and unique.


Part of the parade on water. It was so cool.

Polynesian Center Luau


The Luau had fantastic food and was organized so well. There were so many people there and we didn't wait long at all the food was so good!!!


They had just dug up the pig and you could smell it right away!!!!



Polynesian Center


This place was so amazing. I loved every minute of it and is worth every penny. I loved learning about the different cultures and there was quite a bit of "eye candy"


James was brought up on stage and participated in a fire making challenge.

I fell in love with Hawaii and the scenery. I loved the ocean and the beautiful beaches but I loved even more the inland with the mountains and vegetation.

Dole pineapple plantation

I'm slowly adding some pictures of of the things we did in Hawaii. I'll try not to put a million on here but there are so many to choose from. This is the Dole Pineapple plantation. This was interesting to me especially since I thought that pineapples grew on a big tree, like a coconut tree. But they actually grow on a top of a bush that is only a couple of feet high. We got a pineapple freeze here that is like a pineapple slushy that was soooo good.
