Aloha!

I’ve been enjoying a place called Hawai’i. I’ve been swimming, snorkeling, shopping, sightseeing. Just been having a nice time :)
We’ve been to PCC (Polynesian Cultural Center) and to Paradise Cove Luau on O’ahu. We also flew to Lana’i and to Moloka’i. Tomorrow we’re flying to the Big Island of Hawai’i and staying in Hilo for a few days. After that it’s LA baby!


PCC shows you the culture of the islands of Fiji, Tahiti, Hawaii, Samoa, Aotearoa (New Zeeland) and Tonga


I got a tatoo symbolising royalty in the NZ village

Mini roadtrip ;)

I’m in Waikiki,Hawai’i. I’ve just eaten breakfast and now Im waiting for the Pink Trolley to start so I can go to Alamoena Shopping Center. In the mean time I thought I’d upload the (silent) video I tried to save and upload yesterday before my program froze on me. We had a great time driving around. Got images of the Golden Gate Bridge and some clothes for Julia :)

Dad took a picture of me jumping

Going down Lombard Street

We drove all day yesterday. I got a video driving down Lombard Street for you. I had one of our roadtrip down to San Mateo and back to San Fransisco but Windows Movie Maker decided to freeze and mess up the movie I made so I have to make it again which I don’t have time for right now. Have to get ready because we’re going to the airport soon to catch our flight to Hawai’i.

on the road (today)

I’m off soon. Dad rented a car so we’re going to drive around the bay and then over the Golden Gate Bridge and over to San Mateo and maybe down to Half Moon Bay. Haven’t been there in years. Ate a big breakfast so I will be good till lunch. My friend Sara started taking pictures of her dishes last year when we were in Belgium. I’m now making use of it :)

More pictures of my food. Pizza and pasta dishes have gone unphotographed and my ice-cream have you been too delicious hehe

the san fransisco bay

I didn’t feel like posting last night. My dad had arrived and we got back to the hotel quite late so all I wanted to do was sleep :P
I went over to Alcatraz yesterday. It looked pretty much like it did the last time I was there a couple of years ago. Some things were different. I could venture out in the recreational yard this time. It was so windy out there. When I got past the walls and into the garden it was so beautiful. I got a magnificent view of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Today I’m going to walk around Chinatown. Gonna buy Julia a cute chinese outfit. Similar to the one Alina got when she was a toddler but purple. Alina got a red one. I’m also going to get some photos of cable cars today if I can remember it. Tomorrow dad promised we could get a car and drive to Presidio and get close-ups of the Golden Gate and drive over it and up in the hills and get a city view with the Golden Gate.

hello san fransisco

I arrived in San Fransisco, CA on Saturday afternoon. Feels like it has been longer haha So far I’ve been walking around town (didn’t remember the streets being so steep!) and took the ferry to Sausalito. I’ve also gotten myself a nasty burn around my neck and on my arms. That’s what I get for wearing a dress.

Chinatown is like it always have been. I don’t think anything has changed since I was there last. Neither had Pier 39. Been eating there two days in a row. Love Luigi’s :) Today I’m gonna by myself a Mad Hatter hat at the pier. It’s so cool! Little bit brighter then the one in “Alice In Wonderland” but it’s awsome. Also on the itinerary today is Alcatraz. I’m gonna buy Julia one of those pretty back and white prison outfits. They had the cutest dresses in that pattern. The text on it reads – Rejected, Too cute.
