Mom & Dad made it to Hawaii! After their arrival, which included two leis, a few alohas, and a couple happy tears, I promptly took my parents out for drinks with umbrellas!
We sat outside at House Without a Key on Waikiki Beach. Of course the weather was perfect as it almost always is! We listened to some live Hawaiian music...with a special rendition of "Mele Kalikimaka" which I sang along to.
There was also a nice view of Diamond Head from the restaurant which you can see in the background of the picture above.
We finished the evening watching the sun set over Waikiki Beach and disappear into the Pacific!
The Next Day
Their first full day in Honolulu started with breakfast at Duke's Canoe Club. We had a table with a view of the beach where we enjoyed tropical juice and fruit. Yummy! I'll be going here again with or without visitors!
After breakfast we happened upon a Christmas motorcycle parade and then Mom and I took off to shop under the banyan trees at the International Market Place.
We wandered around Waikiki stopping at the many hotels and checking out the Christmas decorations. My favorite was in the Moana Surfrider. Their tree had giant butterflies on it...it's the tree Mom and I are standing by in the picture above. This hotel has been on Waikiki Beach for over 100 years. Mom thinks it would be great for a wedding...is that supposed to be a hint??? No weddings for the Scholz girls anytime soon, but stay tuned for the remainder of Mom and Dad's trip, including the booze cruise later that night!
