About The Hike

The views are absolutely stunning. One side of the mountain you will see Koko Head Crater, Sandy Beach, Hanauma Bay, and even Diamond Head at a distance. On the

If you love to try new foods and are a huge Disney fan then you should make reservations to eat at Aulani while you’re here on Oahu, Hawaii. We’ve made it a little tradition to take our little girls to eat breakfast here at Aulani for their birthdays. They absolutely love it. The music, the food, and of course the characters. Though my youngest didn’t care to be no where near them, my oldest, Bella, wouldn’t eat just to be with them.

We’ve been here twice already and can’t

We all know that Hawaii is known for the pineapples, it’s swells for surfing, the luaus, and for the amazing island vibes. With pineapples on the list this makes the Dole Plantation a spot that you must visit, plus you can’t leave Oahu without trying one of these delicious pineapple floats or their pineapple ice cream. It’s absolutely delicious. Me living here, sometimes I just go to eat the ice cream. Plus they have the world’s largest maze. I mean how can you not want to get lost in the

There’s so much to do when visiting Oahu, Hawaii that there’s never enough time to do it all so let’s take a drive from the east side of Honolulu all the way up to Turtle Bay and stop at the best sight seeing places on our way there. There’s a lot more then just 10 spots to see but here’s the top 10 on my list.

Let’s start off at Koko Head Crater (aka Stairs of Doom). This is a hike that many people do when they come visit Hawaii and

When I first got to Oahu the first thing I asked around for were the kid friendly beaches on the island. Having a newborn and a 2 year old that didn’t know how to swim, safety was a must. I was looking for a nice calm place to swim. A beach where I didn’t have to worry about big waves or currents. As we all know, Hawaii is known for their huge swells and surfing competitions so waves, currents, and possible injury is always at high risk if you don’t

Açaí bowls have become very popular over the last several years. Not only are they a fruit bowl full of deliciousness but they are very healthy for you. Best of all, you can make them in many different ways and add as many or as little toppings as you’d like.

What Is An Açaí Bowl

First off, let’s talk about what açaí  is. Açaí is a grape like berry that grows on açaí palmtrees in the rainforests of South Ameria. These açaí berries are filled with antioxidants, fiber, calcium, and heart healthy fats.

So these Malasadas are amazingggg and let me tell you all about it. I’ve lived here for a little over a year now and I’ve heard over and over again that Leonard’s Bakery was the place to go when you wanted something sweet in Oahu. Well this is very true. Leonard’s Bakery has been around since 1952 and has an awesome reputation for having delicious sweets, including their number one seller, Malasadas. You may be asking yourself, “What in the world is a Malasada?” Well Malasadas are these warm doughnut like balls with delicious

Yesterday it was Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. This is a day no one will ever forget. A day that will always be remembered in history. I had the honor and the privilege to visit Pearl Harbor and learn more about the history and what happened on December 7th, 1941. 74 years ago the US suffered a great loss. Thousands of soldiers, marines, seamen,, and airmen loss their lives protecting our country and our freedom. Pearl Harbor remains, till this day an underwater graveyard. Hundreds of people drowned, trapped inside of the

Who ever thought that you would find a smaller scaled replica of the Byodo-In Temple from Uji, Japan here on Oahu, Hawaii? When I first moved here I pictured beaches, hikes, waterfalls but never would of thought of seeing a temple such as this one. When I first heard about it I knew I had to go and see it. I love their style of religion. The meditation and the tranquil environment. It just puts anyone at ease with the world and like nothing else matters.

During my time in Hawaii I

Hawaii is well-known for the beaches, surf and beautiful hikes. One of the most family friendly and relaxed hikes on all of Oahu can be found on North Shore. Waimea Valley Falls is a hike that is paved and handicapped accessible, and with a rewarding waterfall view at the end. It is well-known amongst the Hawaiians as a place of worship and peace but now is a tourist area for everyone to learn about the Hawaiian culture and why this place has such high importance for the Hawaiians, their gods,
