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.

(top- target, bottom-old navy, hat- bcbg, hello kitty necklace- sanrio, nail art- modern nails)my musts to take to the beach:
- my iPod w/ my Hello Kitty rhinestone earphones
- a Book & a pencil to underline (Currently reading A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson)
- an Iced Coffee w/ soy milk & 3 splendas- try it! :)
- my new Sunglasses
- my iPhone
- my 88 tees Beach Towel
- Neutrogena Fresh Cooling Body Mist Sunblock- spf 45+
the top was meant to tie around the neck, however, i wrapped it around several times in the center to create a bow. the fedora hat was very useful in blocking the sun. and i know my feet aren't the most flattering feature on my body, but i do have this weird fetish for toe nail designs- but only on the big toe. they do a great job at modern nails in santa rosa. they apply rhinestones and glitter and since i'm not a big fan of acrylic nails (i prefer short & clear on my hands) it's a fun way for me to be daring.
i could lay in the beach all day.. and the rest is history. oh and i love the smell of hawaiian tropic sun tan lotion. :)

i wake up this morning with no memory whatsoever of last night- except that level 4 is great. haha. or maybe it wasn't but anything topped our day of shitty weather and the excitement of getting ready and seeing other people, aside a balding overweight old man that snores like a pig, farts like a whoopee cushion and breathes like a dragon, was feasting my eyes. i got wasted. enough said.
waking up next to my throwup, i'm reminded of oh ya that happened.. haha and after feeding some birds outside our lanai and sharing my wealth of ritz crackers, we get ready to enjoy the beautiful sun :) finally.
we lay out 9am-3pm. wow. anyhow, i got a good run at pineapple country. my new favorite store. and after maybe 6 shades darker, my tan is working in full progress and my hawaii trip feels it has just begun! :)
