Hawaii for Thanksgiving

We went to Hawaii for Thanksgiving because we felt we needed a vacation after spending all summer in Canada working and not getting a chance to get out and do anything. Jon has never been to Hawaii so it was exciting for me to show him around.
We stayed several days with my old roommate from Brigham Young University-Hawaii, Ruth, and her fiance, Tim. This is the view from Tim's place in Waikiki.

We walked down the strip of Waikiki and saw this gold man. He wouldn't face us for pictures unless we paid him a tip. Fair enough.

This is just one of the beaches we visited on the North Shore of Oahu.

We had such a good time.

We stayed at the Turtle Bay Resort for a couple of nights. They had these cool parrots in the lobby.

This is the view from our hotel room, with a handsome man in the way.

It was so beautiful.

The view never gets old, especially the sunsets... I love the sunsets!
