Oahu, February 2015

We returned from a full week in Oahu. It was very nice! We stayed at the Disney Aulani resort on the SW part of the island. Dae attended a few partial days of conference and we got to hang out as a family for the rest of the vacation. That was really nice!

Here are a big block of photos in no order whatsoever...

Outside Budnamujip korean restaurant in Honolulu with Dae's parents

Tonight, at bed, Leelee was taking 'food orders'. I asked him what each of these were, and he said Warrior Bowl (we had these acai warrior bowls for breakfast in Hawaii that were SO good. leelee said they were 'the best bowl of food he's ever had in his life'), Chicken Fries, Chicken, and Juice.

Accumulating pool bracelets.

Olin's bracelets were almost up to his elbow

Leelee and cousin Caleb, who is one year older. Their faces look very similar to me. This is a little rocky area near their house. The view from their home is absolutely gorgeous.

Dae, older brother Sung, Olin, and Halmoni at the ocean overlook by their house

Christian drew this. Look at Olin's hair depiction. Very accurate. 

Scavenger hunt at the hotel. These were cool - we were able to make the rocks moved and make sounds and stuff.

Lots of sand this trip. Feet washing was essential.

Hawaiian essentials!

Bubbles coming up from our submarine tour

Shaka!

Near the ocean floor on the submarine tour. This tour was great!!!

Marukame Udon in Honolulu. We actually came here in 2012 as well. It's good!

In the sub

Starlit Hui nighttime show at the hotel. 

Olin's shell crown cracked me up

Tossing fishnets at the luau

Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor veteran survivor! He is 98 years old. There were two Pearl Harbor vets there that day.

North shore - near Haleiwa. This fisherman was catching quite a few fish. Waves were big here - lots of surfers.

View from my run. My runs were sad this trip, and eating was abundant. Bad combo!

Spear throwing at the luau

Dae and his co-workers Anne and Christina at the luau

A Washington mountain - not sure which one! It was a beautiful view from our airplane

On every flight, Leelee immediately pulled the emergency card out of the seatback pocket and very seriously studied the photos. Dae and I were laughing each time.

Baby, meanwhile, ate his favorite cashews

Baby's skunk spot. I put a smudge of very white sunblock in his hair whorl area to prevent burning.

When Olin tantrums (frequently) we call him the wild animal. We kept joking that wild animals (Olin) were not allowed in many of the Hawaiian establishments.
