Humuhumunukunukuapua'a

I have said it and I'll say it again. I love Hawaii. Too bad I didn't really go to the beach when I was there (and people be like, you went to Hawaii and didn't see the beaches!? What is wrong with you!?) But I promised myself, someday I'm gonna go back and give myself a week or two to enjoy the island because damn, look at those blue sky and water!

On that day, we first went to Pearl Harbour and USS Arizona Memorial and learnt a bit of the history, which now I vaguely remember. I learnt about it in high school as well and I just knew the outline. It was cool, though. I'm very bias but the name U.S. Navy itself has its cool. Then, we went to Iolani Palace before having lunch and took (very touristy) pictures outside. After that, (okay I sound like I want to get this over with, but it's because I couldn't think of any better beautiful conjunction at 00:08) it was time for Nu'uanu Pali Lookout and the view was simply amazing. You can see the hills / mountains, the ocean, the city, the forests and the sky all at once. There wasn't much to do there, obviously, except looking at the mesmerising scene. Basically, if we usually see the planet Earth in sphere, it's like looking it in flat-3D perspective (I meant the blue and green building into one harmony). At the end of the day after we did all the touristy stuff, my family and I strolled in Kalakaua Avenue to do some shopping before heading to another city the next day. So stay tune on the blog to see the next destination (Disneyland Anaheim)!

'Til next post!
