Saturday 12/4/10: Arrived in Honolulu around 9pm.
Sunday 12/5/10: We drove a good stretch of the North Shore and went for a swim at Sunset Beach, then cut through the mountains to the southern shore to check out the Halona Blowhole before sunset.
Monday 12/6/10: Kana and I hiked Koko Head via an abandoned (and very steep) railroad bed. We met a friendly local named Brien. We then intended to go snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, but ended up just eating a late lunch on the beach due to the late timing of our arrival.
Tuesday 12/7/10: Kana and I hiked a good portion of the ridge at Wa'Ahila Ridge State Recreation Area. Sunset at Waikiiki Beach.
Wednesday 12/8/10: Pipe Masters surfing competition at Bonzai Pipeline. Awesome.
Thursday 12/9/10: Kind of an off day. We got a late start and ended up trying to improvise a hike in Nanakuli. We ended up just wandering around a bit and then heading home. Then we met Brien and Kana's friend Jillian for dinner at La Mariana, where I had the best Ahi on the face of the earth. The plan for Friday is to hike Diamond Head in the morning, weather permitting (there's an uncooperative storm system hovering overhead), and then head back to Pipeline for more surf competition with another friend of Kana's.
Awesome! Now I get to live vicariously through you :) Long live the Space Monkeys!
