Hawaii Adventure

Here are a couple of pictures taken from my Hawaii adventure.
First up: As soon as you get to Honolulu's airport, you will begin seeing these signs for the ladies restrooms...I love it!


Here is the sunset view from our hotel room....isn't it grand?! We stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village on Waikiki Beach. Such a wonderful hotel!


We had many bird visitors on our balcony, they were super cute!


Here is me on our balcony...yay for a beautiful view!


Along Waikiki Beach you will see surfboards everywhere! I so wish I was brave enough to learn!


Here is a view from our favorite restaurant called Tropics. It was located right on the beach in our hotel...best food and drinks ever!


Here is my Waikiki Cobb salad that I ordered twice! It was quite delicious...yummy avocado!


Here is a beautiful view of the harbor that was right by our hotel...lovely isn't it?! I would love to ride on one of those boats!


Walking along Waikiki I saw a couple of these stores! I thought it was too funny!


More food pictures! The husband and I went to a wonderful Thai restaurant and I got the summer rolls...they were so pretty and delicious!



The husband and I had a wonderful trip...we just love Hawaii! We cannot wait to get our kayaking pictures developed (we used a disposable waterproof camera.) Hope you enjoyed looking at our pictures:)

Back from Hawaii!

Hello everyone! The husband and I just got back from Hawaii today and boy are we exhausted! I have not slept in awhile and it is time for me to get some much needed shut eye! I will post some pictures tomorrow of my little excursion but I wanted to post a video of something I did when I was in Hawaii. I am so proud of myself for doing it so of course I have to brag! The husband and I went kayaking in Kailua Bay. We did a four hour kayak trip through the company Kailua Sailboards and Kayaks, Inc. We had two of the most adorable guides take us to the Mokulua Islands where we had a picnic lunch. Here is a video I found from their website that pretty much documents what the husband and I did. However, the day we went it was super duper windy and the waves were huge! It was an interesting first kayaking experience for me that is for sure! If you are ever on Oahu I highly recommend doing this little adventure!

Hawaii Bound!

These were pictures taken last year when I went to Hawaii...I am very excited that I will be going back tomorrow! The husband and I will be in Oahu..specifically Waikiki Beach! So I will not be posting for the duration of our vacation...10 whole days! Hope you have a lovely week and I will post as soon as I get back!

Wednesday Music Lovin'

Here is Feist's song Mushaboom....I know it is an older song but I just love it and the video! I love all of Feist's videos...every video on MTV and VH1 should be like hers...so fun:) Many of you who know me will recognize this song as being the song that plays whenever I get a text message. I have had it on my phone for two years! That is how much I love it:) Hope everyone is having a good week so far, I just finished a 12 page paper tonight so I have a lot to celebrate! The husband and I are going to Hawaii on Saturday so I still have lots of school work to do since I am going to be gone all week!

Have a great day!

Tropical Bird

Here is one of my latest artworks called Tropical Bird. It was influenced by my upcoming trip to Hawaii in two weeks. Did I mention that I am pretty excited about this trip?! I need a vacation for sure!

I just love how travel really influences an artist and their artwork. I find that whenever I go anywhere (even just to another state!) I am somehow inspired. Where is the most inspiring place you have ever gone?
