Days 3&4 - Chilling it Island Style

Thursday the 22nd began with yummy food, as usual!

Strawberries with cream and sugar, cornbread, eggs, SPAM (:D), and Hawaiian Sun!

Then off to Baby Makapu'u with cousin Josh. I said he had to take a picture with me, since on facebook I often saw he did with my other cousin, Leilani! But, he said that was only because she threatened to kill him. And apparently, he didn't believe that I had it in me to kill him. :P But, I got this anyways (in which we both look like the sun is killing our eyes, but oh wells xD)! ^^



And, here's a bunch of random pictures taken during our beach adventure:











We didn't stay too long, because we had forgotten goggles, and the waves were quite crazy. :P So, I decided to take us to get shave ice instead! We went to Kokonuts, our long-time most oft-frequented shave ice place. Hawaiian Shave Ice just cannot be beat on the mainland (yup, I still can call it that if I want! ^^), and this is a MUST as many times as possible while here.

Also, you're eating a rainbow. How often do you get to do that? x)

Lunch was Okonomiyaki made with some of last night's tempura. Was it amazing? Yes, as you can see for yourself:

The rest of the day was spent watching some Korean shows with my Grandma, and then I went out to a restaurant called Shokudo with my cousin, Nalani!

And, closed the night with honey toast: the inside of the bread was cubed and toasted slightly,  then drizzled with honey... It tasted just as good as it looked. :D

As you can see, the food was amazing. We were stuffed silly, and I am still so very happy after our catch-up time. :))))

As for Friday, the 23rd… Nothing super exciting happened for most of the day - and thus, no pictures. :P BUT, it was awesome, nonetheless. Lunch with my grandparents, teaching my grandpa some tricks on his computer, shopping with my grandma, and just talking. It was lovely. :) I love those two with a passion, and I know I would never be the same without their loving and ever-giving example. The whole reason I'm here before my trip is to see them, and so today was perfect, just because of that. ♥

But… it wasn't over. Time for some island-hopping next. :D
