We spent two nights in Waikiki, visiting Pearl Harbor while we were there. It was incredibly moving. Although not unexpected, we were still taken aback by just how crowded and commercial Waikiki is. One high end store or mall after another. But we had a nice ocean front room at the Outrigger Reef with a balcony that felt like a cruise ship balcony 🙂. We then flew to Kauai which is everything I imagined Hawaii to be; lush, green, laid back unspoiled and just gorgeous. Our resort, Koloa Landing in Poipu, could not have been better. We took a sunset catamaran cruise Tuesday along the NaPali coast. All I can say is wow, wow, wow. Pictures don’t do it justice. Waimea Canyon was also spectacular. This trip truly lived up to our expectations and I wouldn’t change a thing. Our last night on Oahu You know you’re in a small airport when you see this in baggage claim 😂 Koloa Landing our last night in Kauai 😢 @Momof3gurlz beautiful pictures. On our long bucket list. Would love any recommendations you have on how which islands/hotels, etc Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also love cowgirls loss although they almost had a win . I was conflicted about the Cowboys-Ravens game. On the one hand, seeing the Ravens go 0-3 helps the Bills in the AFC. If the Bills beat the Ravens next week (have to focus on the Jags tonight first), then it probably wouldn't matter. One the other hand...I ALWAYS want to see the Cowboys lose. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love watching Steven A Smith after a cowboy loss, we saw Frank Caliendo at improv a couple of months ago and he has a great impression of him which I requested. We play Baltimore next week, need to avenge that London loss to jaguars tonight . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know all the haters are going to say the Chiefs get all he breaks from the refs and yes that was pass interference from the chiefs in the end zone but there were also a few no calls on the Falcons. Mahomes did not play his best game he’s been flat the last couple of games. Not sure why he’s not throwing to Kielce I saw a lot of plays where he was open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joes KC (two locations) Get the “Z” Man sandwich and their fries are the best. 2. Q 39 kind of like gourmet BBQ 3. Arthur Bryant’s the original KC BBQ. Spicy sauce where a lot of US Presidents have dined when they have come to KC. 4. Gates another KC original For burgers I would recommend: 1) Westport flea market. Best made to order juicy burger voted #1 by Food Network 2) Winsteads great steak burger 3) Hayes Hamburgers great small diner and lunch counter with onion smash burgers 4) Hyboy in Independence has great burgers and fantastic onion rings. I hope this helps them. Lots of good choices. 2) Edited 3 hours ago by Sea Dog 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love any recommendations you have on how which islands/hotels, etc Thanks! I lived in hawaii for 10 years and visited all the islands. I went back to hawaii to see a old boyfriend on celebrity, a one way and stayed there to visit. Waikiki is good for shopping and eating, commercial. Fish of the day is always mahi mahi. Ono is the best fish, ono means delicious but is always the name of the best fish most will agree. Maui has the most to see, my favorite. Flowers on the way up to the volcano are one of a kind in the world. Road to hana is almost impossible to do in one day even way back. The road is winding and of course you want to stop and see all the waterfalls. If you dont book a room in hana it's very very hard to do and get down and back in the same day, imagine driving to key west and back during high season except winding roads with a waterfall around every corner. Yes there is a bus you can do. I would want to stop and see stuff. The gold coast of miles of the best beaches. Idk about the whaling town after the fire. ..just so much to see. Diverse but expensive. My relatives like the poster here went to Kauai which in the middle is the rainiest spot on earth. You cant walk down into the Canyon here that is like the Grand Canyon, only fly over. From the other side you can drive to the cliffs and hike quite a ways but cant drive around the island. We drove into the middle where the black sand beaches are and wild pig country. I'm pretty sure our rental car company forbid where we drove it. Every yard has gorgeous flowers there. They grow so well. Where the poster stayed is the dry side, sunny and hot. We stayed at a beach in the rainy side as they say. Each island has a rainy and dry side. Big island has the volcano. I have never gone to hana it doesnt pour. Many white guys from the mainland think oh they dont mind rain, buy a 25 acre or smaller plot near hana and are gone in a year. It's like maintaining a jungle. Beautiful. Kona is the dry side where you see all the black lava rock. And horse country of course looks green just like kentucky at its best. Depends what you feel like spending imo. Kaui is beautiful and unspoiled but not as much to see. My bf had a childhood friend there and we kept busy but maui just can't be beat, but is costly, especially the gold coast. The road to hana is breathtaking. Imo one of the 7 wonders of the world and the volcano great hiking or renting a bike. The flowers are worth a side trip on the way up to the mountain. Cant do it all in a week. I've even been to the island where non hawaiians couldn't buy land, but it's off the tourist beaten path. Did you know surf contests are only in the winter. The surf only comes up from around Thanksgiving to early spring. You wouldn't see a surf contest in the summer. But better for swimming. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
