Hawaii Day 7

I woke up on our last full day in Hawaii feeling like myself again! Good timing.
We ditched Waikiki and headed back toward the North Shore.

We stopped at the Dole Plantation on the way.
Shared a Dole Whip, and some smooching.
Then stopped at my favorite burger spot. Avocado Burger...YUM! They only have three locations in the world. WHY?!

Then we drove to a cool spot and hiked around until we had a sweet view of Waimea Bay.

Throwing down a little good luck on the way.
We have a very similar photo from 5 years ago in this spot.
Someone was up there, and took our pictures, and told us to use it as our Christmas Card...only missing two.
Then we went to Pipeline to cool off and catch some rays. I was missing Kate a little bit.


Matt says in the winter this whole beach behind us is under water.
Then to Kawela Bay to swing around.


Climb in the trees.



Visited the bunker. When he first took me here when we were dating, I remember him saying, "We should just elope in the Kona Temple, I'll build a little huts, and raise our kids right here." I was like....SOLD!
5 years later. Married, but not eloped. 1 kid. 1 on the way. And maybe someday we can build a house here! (It was really windy!)
Then we walked back down by the beach and spent some time swimming around and reminiscing.


We raced back to Waikiki to make our sunset dinner reservations at the Shorebird, we were had our first real date! We ate right on the water, grilled our own steaks and pineapple, and acted like we were on our first date again. It was the perfect way to end the perfect day, and the perfect vacation!
