Today we rented a car and drove around Oahu.
First stop was the North Shore where we had lunch at the world's famous
Giovanni's Shrimp Truck
. There are many several trucks as you pass up such as
Macky's Shrimp Truck
and other variations of the same menu which entails a $12 plate of shrimp scampi with the option of lemon & butter or hot & spicy- which FYI- is non refundable.. ;)
Then we had dessert at
Matsumoto Shave Ice
in Haleiwa, a small quaint town that attracts locals and tourists alike. I ordered a large Mango, Lychee and Lilikoi combination with vanilla ice cream and condensed milk to top it off! :) Very delicious.
We continued our drive and discovered
Wameia Bay Beach Park
was closed. :( This hot spot is home to the famous cliff people come to jump off of. Unfortunately, the tides were extremely high and although many people layed out to enjoy the scenery of the beach, we left and headed east and stumbled upon a cute beach off the freeway that was empty. It was beautiful- quiet, still, clear, with turquoise waters; very refreshing.
