Tweet Traveling to Hawaii soon? Can’t decide which island to visit? Check out this infographic from Go Visit Hawaii. Get fun facts and travel advice about each island.

Tweet Our last week in Hawaii was bittersweet. We hung out one last time with my sister and her kids and our Hawaii friends. We ate shave ice from Matsumoto’s one last time. And we feasted on sushi and Apple Napples (turnovers) from Zippy’s on our last night. On our last full day in Oahu, [...]
Tweet I’m so sad to post this. It’s our last day in Hawaii and we’re leaving to go back home to San Diego. I know it’s going to be a hard transition for all of us. I start work after a 6 month maternity leave. My kids go back to school after being in Hawaii [...]
Tweet It was really hard to board the plane back to Oahu. We all really loved Kauai – to the point where my husband is looking into real estate. I can’t imagine living there unless I could work at home from a company in the mainland. Anyone want to hire a contractor? All kidding aside, [...]
Tweet After traveling around to the south side of the island last week, we decided we preferred the north shore side of the island. So we bounced from Hanalei beach to surf to Annini beach to snorkel every day. The boys just loved it. And if you’re kids want to learn to surf I suggest [...]

Tweet We’ve now been in Kauai for three weeks (after being in Oahu for two weeks), and settling into our routine. We wake up, eat breakfast, go to the beach, have lunch at home, go to another beach, eat dinner, and then go to bed. We’ve been trying to do homework in the morning before [...]
Tweet We’re just ending our second week in Kauai, and we are loving it. The north shore of Kauai is one of the quaintest areas I’ve ever visited. Hanalei reminds me Haleiwa on Oahu but much less developed and touristy. I read that there are about a 900,000 residents on Oahu, but only about 65,000 [...]
Tweet Today, my kids went to Kauai Kunana Dairy Farm. I had read so many great reviews, and wanted to check it out for myself. I’ve always thought that my 4-year-old son should live on a farm because he’s as wild as the farm animals, so it was the perfect environment for him. I can’t [...]
Tweet In Kauai, chickens are everywhere. I had no idea. I keep following them to see if I’ll find a stash of eggs somewhere. Come on, I want to try really fresh eggs.
