Postcards from Hawaii - Part I

You may have seen through my Instagram feed that I was in Hawaii a few weeks ago.

It was kind of a spur of the moment decision..

we saw a flash sale on flights, somehow finangled our friends into coming along, booked a condo on the beach, and boom,

we're sunning our fannies on some of the most beautiful beaches in the world.

Erik and I have been to Hawaii a couple of times before,

so the loveliness of the tropics wasn't too much of a surprise for us.

My friend on the other hand, was a Hawaii virgin,

so we opted to participate in all the touristy goodness that Oahu has to offer.

The photos above capture some moments from the first two days of our stay.

Gorgeous sunrises over Diamondhead, crystal clear water of Kailua beach, traditional Luau at Germaine's, and long walks along Waikiki beach... that's what life is made for.

Oh and that last snapshot?

Yeaahh... that's our expression after getting struck by a monsoon after dinner one night.

Welcome to the tropics baby!
