Long trip from Newark to Honolulu but we made it there ok. Thank God for non-stop. Got picked up at airport with Lei Greeting (booked with Expedia) We went to hotel (Pacific Monarch) tired from the long trip and just got a bite to eat,unpacked and relaxed the rest of the night. I must say the hotel was much better than expected,it was on the 11th floor with a direct view to the ocean. It was a little outdated but was clean and roomy. Day one we got up and took a walk up and down the streets to check out the shopping. We had breakfast at the Hula Grill. It was O.K. Stopped at a few ABC stores to pick up a few things for the beach.Spent the day on the beach and out for dinner. Day two went to PCC. It was great. Booked the Ambassador package and was glad I did. Oue tour guide Park was great.We had the Prime Rib buffet and the food was excellent. The show was really good. Day three Went to Sea Life Park so our granddaughter could swim with the dolphins. It was not so great,she loved the dolphins but as far as the park goes, I would%26#39;nt bother to go again. Grabbed a couple hours on the beach and out to dinner.Day four Went to Paradise Cove Luau. I thought it was very good. Lots of things to do before the luau. We did the deluxe package in which everything was included the picture and of course the free mug. Got served instead of buffet style. Day five Tried to go to adventure park but it was closed for private party so to the beach and then shopping. International market place was nice and yes I picked a pearl and had it made into a nice plam tree necklace.Tried to get into Duke%26#39;s for dinner but the wait was over an hour so ate in a place on Kuhio Ave that was a buffet,and it was horrible. The food was not good at all.Day six took the Pearl Harbor Circle Island tour. Very solemn at Pearl Harbor but was glad I had a chance to visit it. The Circle Tour was O.K. because if we rented a car we would never have found the places we went to. But it was to alot of beaches. Day seven we went to breakfast at the Ortani Hotel which was outdoors and we enjoyed it. Did more shopping and then the beach so our granddaughter could try some surfing.75.00 for an hour and then to buy the cd another 60.00. Day eight Got up and started to pack to leave.One more trip to the beach and shopping before we leave. Our flight was 7:55 pm and even though checkout was 12:00 they allowed us to stay until 3:00 which I thought was very nice of them . We got picked up at 4:45 for the airport and our long trip home. Did make a trip to Hilo Hatties. Nice store. Took many beautiful pictures and brought back alot of memories. Thank all of you for helping with all your info for making my trip of a lifetime the best. THANKS%26gt;
