OUR CAR
We ended up renting a mustang convertable, it was really cool! Dustin loved driving it, and the lady gave us a fantastic deal on our upgrade! Thanks Aurora :)
PEARL HARBOR
Our first stop was Pearl Harbor, that was such a cool experience, we got to tour one of the original submarines and go out to the USS Arizona memorial. I am so grateful to all the men and women who fought for our freedom in WWII, including my Grandpa Hayden.
USS Arizona Memorial.
We also went to the original Dole Pineapple Plantation, that was pretty cool, they had pineapples from all over the pacific islands, some were tiny and some even red.
We also hiked up diamond head crater, that was pretty sweet because for part of it you're inside the edge of the mountain.
This was my favorite ice cream they had, it was called haupia (coconut) but was super creamy with no chunks and just the flavor, the bottom one was chocolate macadamia nut, DELICIOUS!
The Polynesian Cultural Center
This was one of my very favorite things we did on our trip! It was so cool to be there and see all the cultures, we tried this pasty stuff called poi that they make bread and things out of, it was interesting.Poi
And of course Dustin had some tropical icecream :D hahaHe also threw a spear, it was sort of a game to see who could through it closest to the target
what a man! ;D I LOVE HIM!
At the Lu'au dinner we had they called all of the people there for their honeymoon/wedding anniversary to come up and they played the hawaiian wedding song for us as we all slow danced, it was really cool, there were a couple of couples there for their 50th anaversary!
Dustin even made fire by rubbing two sticks together, well he tried any way, it was really hard, I think only the big polynesian guy acutally got it to work.

THE BEACH
We spent some time out on the beach of course, haha. One of the days Dustin did some body boarding, it was fun to watch him, we also sat out and watched the sunset sometimes at night on the beach, that was so cool!
