During our last full day in Hawaii, we made sure to spend some time at the Pearl Harbor Memorial.
It was truly such a wonderful learning experience for the both of us, but a somber one too.
Here is the sunken USS Arizona along with thousands of its Navy men.
Then, we took a drive to the North Shore of Oahu.
We dipped into the Dole Plantation to check out some pineapples!!
Lunchtime at the famous Giovanni's shrimp truck!
We had dessert at the famous Matsumoto Shave Ice (Not: Shaved Ice, Snowball, or Snow cone)!
The long line was worth the wait. We both got different variations of their traditional rainbow, but I had adzuki beans added to mine and Ryan had ice cream added to his. Both are popular local choices. I could have done without the beans, but I'm glad I gave it a try. It literally tasted like cowboy beans at the bottom of a snow ball.
We enjoyed our last dinner, drinks, and live music at Hula Grill.
Before getting on our flight back home, we hiked Diamond Head.
Then, enjoyed our last few hours by the beach overlooking the volcano that we just climbed!!
I miss you Hawaii
