Aloha, means goodbye as well
although directly translated it means affection, love, peace, compassion and mercy. As all good things must come to an end, it’s time to wrap up my blogging on Hawaii until a future trip, which is definitely going to happen. We hope to be able to book a cabin right on the beach at Bellows Air…
Exploring Oahu
Today I am going to take you on some more of our wanderings of the island. Without any definite plan other than some advice from our Aunt and a map, we decided to go wandering. We headed east from Honolulu right through the mountains. The mountains are green, so many different shades of green, it…
“This Day Shall Live on in Infamy”
Pearl Harbor was one place my husband and I both wanted to visit while on Oahu. Contrary to my typical nature of planning things well in advance, having this trip following a Grand Gathering to Disney World and the fact that it was rather last minute left me little time for planning.

Samawati Springs
The pool at Kidani Village, while in my opinion is in awkward place (you have to cross either the circle drop off area by the main entrance, or go down into the parking garage and cross through there) was a pleasant surprise, as the one at Jambo house has never overly impressed me. There is…

A peek inside one of Kidani’s Grande Villas
In January my family was lucky enough to bring some extended family members with and we were able to secure a Grande villa at Kidani Village. I wanted to share some pictures of this beautiful villa with you. It is laid out on two floors; the lower floor has the master bedroom and bath, a…
Zebras at Animal Kingdom Lodge
Did you know there are two types of zebras at Animal Kingdom lodge? I suppose you could say three if you want to count the wildly popular Zebra Domes available at Boma and Mara, but I meant the four legged kind. The more common of the two is the Grant’s Zebras, sometimes called Plains Zebras,…
