A week after we got home from our first trip to Hawaii for Ralphs 50th birthday we had to go back again. This time for Hayley and Aarons wedding. I will do a separate post on there wedding pictures and party after the wedding. These pictures are just some things we did during the time we wasnt at the wedding. The above picture was taken at our hotel before we left for the wedding. The dress i have on is about 15 years old. Really! I think i have wore it twice. lol. It is a light dress and jacket and i though although way old it went with the theme for a Hawaii Beach wedding. It was very light and comfortable to wear on a hot beach with my croc sandles. I figured when we have the receptions i will buy a more formal outfit. Hayley wanted everyone casual and it was all just perfect. Anyway heres some pictures of what we did when we wasnt at the wedding.
At the beachfront again. Everyone says this beach is too crowded for them. We never found it that way. It can get crowded middle of the day but we only went there first thing in the morning or around sunset so never had a problem. Always plenty of room for all of us. I enjoyed watching everyone so like to have people around to watch, lol. If it is too crowded you can go five mins down the road to more private beaches. Theres certainly enough beach for everyones tastes in Hawaii.
I love the fact that by the beaches there is so much green area. So if you dont want to sit on the beaches you can sit on grass.
The above picture was at Kona airport in Hawaii. I loved this airport. It was all huts and the terminal was outside. Way cool. What you see behind is the airport terminals.
I guess we found out where Elvis went. He went to Hawaii. Cant say i blame him.
This was at our hotel. I didnt like the hotel as much as our nice oceanview one the week before but this was a rush trip so didnt plan it out as well. It was clean but i wouldnt stay here again. But ithe room was nice and did have great a/c which is a big thing for me.
Love Hawaii. I love this area so much more then where we stayed last year. The condo was nice (other then it didnt have a/c so i died everyday) but we have since found out its located in the Hood of Hawaii and people stay away from that area. lol. Live and learn. Even the miltary tell people to stay away from there. lol. With what we paid for rent for the condo and the airfare compared to what we pay as a pkg deal with air/hotel and car, it is in face cheaper staying where we prefer to be also. And we dont spend most of our vacation driving which is what happened at the condo as its miles from nowhere you want to be.
I did most of the back of Hayleys dress and then had to go and meet Aaron at the beach to meet the person marrying them, so Michelle took over the last two parts of putting Hayley together. This was at a cool condo right by the beach where they got married. Aarons family rented it. Its in a great location and its somewhere i would stay at.
Dont you love the chair in the picture.
The drive beween where we were staying and where Hayley and Aaron live is very pretty. We stopped a lot to look around and take pictures.
Some of these pictures were also taken at North Shore where we went to get shrimp.
This is Koko Head where Ralph climbed up last week. Ugh!Well thats all the pictures we took that wasnt at the wedding, other then the one of Hayley and Michelle. I will do the wedding post sometime. Have a lot of pictures to go though.
