Tasty Hawaii

I've got so many fun pictures from our trip to Hawaii, it's hard to know how to group them and what I want to document, share and blog about. So, I thought I'd start with an entire post about some of the delicious things we ate!

We had a great time at the Polynesian Cultural Center. I think it was Claire's favorite thing we did... other than play on the beach. The center has seven beautiful "villages" representing different parts of Polynesia. In Tahiti, Jeff loved the samples of coconut bread.



I'm not sure anyone really "loved" the samples of poi, but it was very cool to see it made in the authentic manner.

Our day at the Polynesian Cultural Center ended with a fabulous luau including smoothies in giant pineapple mugs!Here's an afternoon lunch at Haleiwa Joe's.
Followed by shave ice at Aoki's. So many choices!
One night we had ramen at a tiny place on Waikiki's strip. Such a variety of cultures in Hawaii.

Jeff has been to Hawaii for work many times. This is one of his favorite places!
The kids shared a milkshake.

Another of Jeff's favorite places is Wahoo's Fish Tacos. Yum!I'll share a bit more of this and that from our Hawaii trip soon.

OMG... I can't believe how grown up Claire looks...she'll be taller than you soon (Eli is now my height and soon to be taller!). I never noticed before that both kids inherited Jeff's blue eyes! Looks like you had fun...

And I seriously want the fabric (and maybe the dress too) that the lady is wearing in the first photo!
