Hang Loose!

Phew...these past few days have been jam packed! We are def loving everything about Honolulu and experiencing EVERYTHING! Tues Libby and I went to Waikeli to the outlet mall. Lets just say the website was way too nice in describing this "luxurious" hot spot! When we finally arrived in Waikeli (after the 1 1/2 bus ride mind you) we were quite shocked to see how little this place had to offer! However, I did purchase a great dress at this cute store Local Motion! There was a guy who worked there from OU! We sang Boomer Sooner loud and proud! After hitting all the stores (this took aprx. 45 min if that shows you how little it was!) we discovered we had missed the dealine for din at the caf! We decided to use Libby's Chili's gift card, only to discover she left it at the apt! Thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Quincey we had an amazing meal topped off with Libby's fav chocolate dessert! This was by far the greatest meal we had since we arrived! When we got back t the apt we decided we should make friends in the apt! We met these locals who seemed very laid back and chill-- the exact opposite of the annoying drunk Kentucky boys who live next door! After we chatted with the locals we called it a night!

Wed. has been my fav day yet! We learned to surf at Diamond Head! The waves were GIGANTIC! Our dumb instructor, Ryan didn't seem to know what he was doing and just kind of pushed us out into the ocean with the humongo waves! But after a few wipeouts I got up and loved it! Granted I lasted about 5 sec til I fell off, but it was def an amazing feeling. We left exhausted and covered in rashes from our boards! We decided we were gonna rent boards on Waikiki and improve our "skill points" as Ryan would say. That night we had some neighbors over and had a great time! The night ended in a success with a noise warning from the RA! 

Today we hiked Makapuu Lighthouse. We rode the bus as far as we could then attempted to hitch hike our way to the hike. Unfortunately this did not work and we hailed a cab! This hike was the hardest I had done so far, but was worth the pain I will be feeling tom! The view was absolutely amazing! It looked as if the ocean stretched on forever! We could see Kailua Beach and Lani Kai where we are going tomorrow! Tonight we are going to a club with these guys we met at Lulu's the other night! Hopefully it is a "blog-worthy night"!
