Pineapple Galore

Pineapple.

I could talk for days about

evvvvvvvveeeeeerrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyy

thing we did while we were in Hawaii,

but don't worry I'll probably get bored after a few of these posts.

First, I'd like to talk about pineapple

I ♥ pineapple.

And so does Jesse,

even though Dole Whip is a close second for him.

I would recommend visiting Dole if you go to Hawaii,

except I feel like Dole could have a much greater upkeep on their property as they did.

{For pete's sake, they've sold millions of pineapples over the years...

Not counting all the food and Dole Whip!}

But, I have to say, you can't beat the pineapples from the US of A,

the fresh,

Hawaiian

pineapples.

So here are some photos to tell our {pineapple} story.

Pick where you wanna go...

We took the train.

You can see all the plants that are grown in Hawaii.

Here are just a few:

This is what Pineapple looks like when it's growing:

but....ya gotta have the

FOOD!

Dole Whip....With pineapple chunks.

Home Sweet Home

I feel as though a million things have happened since I have last posted, and yet I haven't a clue what to write about.  We arrived home from Hawaii on Sunday.  We left 6 days before, early in the AM.  Hawaiian Airlines was the airline we took {Side note:  flight attendants on Hawaiian = not friendly.  We'll be exploring our options next time around...}.  


So here are some of the things we did....

We visited the island of Oahu, staying at the Hale Koa {for those who don't know that is the military hotel on Oahu}.  We went to Dole {twice}, visited Schofield Barracks {Army Post in Hawaii}, went sailing, to a luau, boarded a plane to the big island, visited family, went to black sand beach, bought some amazing coffee, saw volcanoes {complete with lava tunnel..awesome!}, flew back to Oahu, went out for drinks, did lots of shopping {oh so much shopping!}, ate some great food, saw the Duke statue, visited Pearl Harbor {AWESOME}, drove to the North Shore, ate shaved ice, drove around the *entire* island, saw diamond head, drank lots of mai tai's, bought lots of souvenirs, drank a coconut frap {umm..YUM}, ate tons of pineapple, saw the sun rise above the clouds, saw Mt. Rainier, Mt. St Helens, and Mt. Hood all at once....and took more than 400 pictures

And yet with all of that...I'm sure I forgot to mention something.

Go BIG or go home, right??
