Oahu 2015

 After Kauai, we fly to the island of Oahu.  We stayed in Hau'ula....which was a great central place for the places that we visited.  At least we had our own rooms this time.......

Stopped by the Laie Temple......always nice to walk around the grounds.  They were doing some renovations so couldn't get the full view.  We met some sister missionaries, that were pretty fun to talk to.  One was from Germany and she would look us up after the mission to be our travel buddy.
 It was a bit rainy, and saw this rainbow as we were eating our dinner at Ted's Bakery.  Always a must to stop by when on the island of Oahu for some delicious pie.
 Sunset beach....it was a little cloudy since it was on and off rain, but still an awesome sunset.

 We went to the Dole Plantation.  We rode the Pineapple Express. Ellie asked the girl sitting in front of us to take a picture and this is what we got.  She only took one, not sure how the girl thought this is what we wanted......Ellie and I don't take very many pics together when travel together, but this was our only pic this trip and this is what we got.....pretty fab eh?

 We went to the visit the point.  When I was a baby we lived near the point and Ellie had another friend suggest going there.  It was a little cloudy, but it was still a beautiful sight. A tad bit windy....

 Walked around the Polynesian Cultural Center before the evening show.
 On the overlook at the Blowhole on Oahu.
 Beach time.....last time on the beach before we had to leave. We still hadn't had a chance to boogie board, so today was the day.  It was pretty good weather.  We went to Hauula Beach Park cause we had been there with my family and they had the rope swing and we wanted to swing.  However, when we got there there was a homeless man using the rope to hold up his tent.....so had to count that out.

Still a great last day to spend in Hawaii.
