There have been so many times in the past few years that, I have created a blog , written a post or two and then stopped completely.So, I decided to start afresh. Ever since I have been to Hawaii,I had this strong urge to write.
Hawaii is the place I have been fascinated with since the time I started using computers.Ask me how?Hawaii used to always deck up as my wallpaper background.I used to keep looking at them and wonder, Could the water be this blue/green?Sky be this clear?
So this January,2014, I got to visit Oahu,Hawaii.Hawaii is one of the smallest but most densely populated states of U.S.It is also only U.S state that is entirely made of islands.Hence it is a very popular holiday destination.It has beautiful weather all through the year so there is never a bad time to visit Hawaii.All I expected was may be a week of warm weather(Happy to be escaping Seattle Cold),relaxation,good weather, wear all the lovely clothes and spend amazing time with my husband.But, I was wrong.It was so much more,it was one such vacation where I actually relaxed, spoke about tomorrow,wonderful dreams,didn't work,wasn't much on my mobile and smiled all through my stay.
The first day,we just walked the streets.That's my most favorite part.I think you actually get to feel the place when you walk the streets.These streets were filled with energy, funkiness, shopping centers, restaurants, seafood bars, jewelry shops(my fav) and lots of people. In the evening we went to beach, it was beautiful to witness the sunset and play around in the sand.Then it was time for dinner,there came the toughest part of finding vegetarian food.We struggled with all through our stay but we managed to find the best Thai Place.Siam Thai Restaurant.This was a blessing with such great food in fact the best Pad Ki Mao.I gorged on the Pad Ki Mao all through my stay.It was Perfect.
Next big destination was the Polynesian Cultural Center(PCC). Where do I begin? PCC is a beautiful Polynesian themed park.Within 8 simulated tropical villages, performers demonstrate various arts & crafts throughout Polynesia.Extremely beautiful girls with lovely,luscious, curly hair.Amazing dance forms, such sync and coordination.Best thing about these performers were that they were so happy performing the art,spreading the word about their culture.It was such a sight,only the pictures below can do justice.
There were these beautiful huts,places of worship,canoe rides.The day ended with a beautiful show namely Ha- The Breath of Life.Such a clean,neat and well executed show depicting different stages of life again coupled with mind-blowing performances.
The following few days were all about local attractions such as the very popular Byodu Temple,beaches,more beaches,hiking, walk the streets and great Pad Ki Mao.
Icing on the cake was the fresh tended coconut I got to have.
This trip was much more then beaches,it was about the beauty of nature and beauty of life.In a way kind of taught me to live every moment and be thankful for every second.
