Back to Hawaii...

This past Monday, my sister and I, took another trip, to Hawaii. This time, I had to escort her to Honolulu, so she could catch her flight from Hawaii to WA. It has been an amazing month for the both of us, our birthdays, her coming out to Guam to visit, and traveling to Japan, etc. I will always treasure the memories we've made...
We arrived into Hawaii, about 7pm, then, made our way to our hotel. This time we stayed at Best Western: The Plaza Hotel by the airport. So much cheaper and worth every penny. Two nights to be exact. They had a shuttle, and even offered continental breakfast. The hotel staff also gave us a nice room with access to the elevator. Because apparently, we had booked the unit by the pool and there are steps. The young man who gave us a better room was truly a sweetheart! We had many food places nearby too! Mcdonald's was it for dinner. We were exhausted after the 7 hour flight, and so we just showered and stayed in. The bed was so comfortable, even the pillows, dreamy. Yesss!!
 The next morning, we decided to go to Pearl Ridge Mall, and oh my goodness. They had completely changed everything since the 80's!! There was even a monorail to take you to the other two sections of the mall, what?! Last we both recalled, there was only one section!! OMG! I only took a few photos of the place, and because it was a holiday, there were many people there too! The shop above, had all kinds of sour items! I just had to take a photo of that! We both got ourselves some Boba Tea, Ube/Taro flavoured ice of course! Shopped at Ross, then, TJ Max too! They even had a Book Off shop! Like in Japan!! Awesome!
 By that afternoon, we made our way back to our hotel area, and IHOP, for lunch. We found out, it was just behind our hotel! LOL

 It was somewhat raining here and there. After lunch we headed back to our hotel and relaxed. We ordered Pizza Hut for dinner, and made sure to get our bags packed and ready for our flights the next day. Lita had to catch an 8am flight by Tuesday morning. While mine was not until 3:30pm that afternoon, for Guam. It was bittersweet. An amazing 10 days of just spending time with my sister, seeing her enjoy being back on Guam, and even the excitement of seeing Japan a bit closer for her first time. Her spending time with our Dad, and our brothers and their families too. It was truly a blessing for us all, that she was able to be here. Thanks my love, Sam!!

She made it home safely, and I arrived into Guam Wednesday night. Now, its back to our busy lives again. This was definitely a birthday month to remember always...
