Christmas Day

On Christmas Eve, we had dinner at Red Lobsters which was a real treat. We went all out and had a big platter of seafood. The boys then opened a small gift from Mormor and Morfar and put some cookies and a drink out for Santa.

 Then we opened some more gifts from Grandma and Grandpa and Santa.

Thank you for the cards and games and dice. Santa brought some lego, a small nerf gun, rubik's cube and games.

We had brunch again at the hotel beach front restaurant.

Then we had some lagoon time. Today is the nicest day out while we have been at this hotel. We are so fortunate.

We rented a red paddle boat. 

With and hour rental, you can trade in for other toys.

The kid pools were packed. 

I think this afternoon we will take a long walk along the beach if the kids allow us to. Merry Christmas.

Wishing our family and friends a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 

Hotel Pool Day

Today was truly a vacation day. The breakfast brunch, the beach walk, and pools all afternoon. 

We picked this hotel because it has the best waterslides in Waikiki. Bobs is in heaven here. 

We swam yesterday too, and the pools were pretty empty due to the rain.

Mads has a cold and has been coughing quite a bit. He had a nap this afternoon and is quietly watching a movie with me in the hotel room while Daddy and Bobs check out the sunset. 

We have also been assembling some lego.

Last Night in Kailua

Tomorrow we head back to Waikiki at the Hilton. We finished off a great trip to Kailua with Bob's pizza yet again. Bobs seems to like familiar things. 

We went to the beach that Obama has a section cordoned off ( for real, the whole top end of it is closed off to the public and a $40,000 fine ensues for those who trespass). 

Bobs loves waves so much. He said to me that it feels like you are climbing the water. I knew to bring the condo boogie boards with us. Bobs gave it a try and then I went on my own. I skinned my knees when I landed hard in the sand, but otherwise it was super fun. 

Obama's beach is on the right top end of this photo.
