The day started off with a buffet breakfast. In my opinion it could have used a larger variety of breakfast choices, but the omelets were made in front of you and were awesome!
Next we jump into the car and head to the North Shore, home if waves, surfing, and the Polynesian Cultural Center.
Anytime you can experience the world's natural beauty, and World culture on the same trip, you take it!
We stopped along a few beaches in the north shore to marvel at the waves and the surfers. I've always had an appreciation for the sport, but witnessing it makes it so much better. Beach after beach, the scenery was nice, surfers were awesome, and the weather and sand were hot!
Then the Cultural Center. It is such an amazing place. An oasis in the middle of almost nowhere. Basically, a center to celebrate Hawaii, Tongo, Tahiti, Samoa, Haiti, Fiji, and Aotearoa. It comes complete with a village for each nation, cultural demonstrations for each nation, and a parade on boats featuring the traditional dances and music of each nation. This place was very cool! I could go on but you should just experience it yourself.
The return trip to Waikiki featured a few more beaches on the North Shore and a walk around the touristy area of Waikiki.
Tomorrow: Pearl Harbour and Diamond Head
