ALOHA!

we got back a couple of weeks ago, it was heaven on earth! If we could move there tomorrow, we would. We stayed in Waikiki, the hotel was right ON the beach, and was lovely. We swam with dolphins, and sting rays at SeaLife park, snorkelled at Hanauma Bay. We toured around town, Iolani Palace, Kimg Kamehaha, Punch Bowl, and Pearl Harbor. Got in loads of beach time, learned to make leis, did a sunset dinner cruise. I loved every second of it.
the shock of coming home and dealing with mom moms death less than a week later has knocked me flat, and they while trip feels like a dream right now.
Day by day, its the only way.

Aloha.

Just an FYI to Community Members planning a visit to Oahu. The Polynesian Cultural Center is owned and operated by the Mormon Church(LDS)who have historically financed opposition to LGBTQ Rights. Currently Marriage Equality. Everyone is entitled to spend their money as they please, but they don't get any of mine.
