In case you missed it – check out Hawaii Recap Part I!
On Day 3 (Tuesday), I drove to do the Manoa Falls hike. Unfortunately I’ve heard this hike can be hit or miss depending on the water level of the waterfall, and for me it was definitely a miss unfortunately. But it was definitely a good workout!
After that, I headed to Kailua Beach, which is on the northwest part of Oahu. Like the North Shore, it was also a beautiful beach that wasn’t overcrowded. I spent some time there reading, but it was a little windy that day!
After that, I headed to a late lunch across the street and then drove back to our hotel. Later on, I met my mom and a few of her conference buddies for dinner and drinks.
The next day, I went to the Surf Lanai at the Royal Hawaiian and had breakfast (and my first Mai Tai), then I spent some time on the beach at the hotel. Later on, I went to a tattoo shop to talk about the coverup I wanted on my forearm (covering an Aries constellation I didn’t like anymore – just wasn’t done well). Then my mom and I had a nice dinner at Mai Tai, also at the Royal Hawaiian later that night.
Stay tuned for the Part III – the final post!
