My first cruise to Hawaii with my mom and sister! It was 2014 and we were free to travel. It had been a long time since I travelled with my mom on a genuine vacation. Therefore, I was absolutely ecstatic about it.
We boarded Royal Caribbean’s Radiance Of The Seas. Unfortunately, there weren’t many photos of the ship. I remembered the service was excellent!
Imagine how you would feel as this little seahorse wrapped its tail around your pinky finger! This seahorse farm was where I met some rare and special species of seahorse.
Thomas A. Jagger Museum
This museum was closed since 2018 as it was built in 1985 and each time there was any volcanic activity, it became more unstable.
This was the only place you could take such an amazing photo of the Kilauea Caldera.
Luau Dinner
A lūʻau (Hawaiian: lūʻau, also anglicized as “luau“) is a traditional Hawaiian party or feast that is usually accompanied by entertainment. It may feature food such as poi, kālua puaʻa (kālua pig), poke, lomi salmon, ʻopihi, and haupia, beer, and entertainment such as traditional Hawaiian music and hula.—- Wikipedia

Before the dinner, we got to walk around the place and enjoy the forest and beach.
It took hours to cook the food underneath all the hot rocks, soil and plant materials. Lots of hard work was put into it and even more to lift up the food!

We honeymooned in Hawaii in 2011: didn’t realise the volcano museum had closed. Pleased we got to see it while it was still open, thank you for bringing back happy memories 😊

I didn’t know until I was writing this post either. It’s unfortunate as it was the best place to take that photo of the caldera.

I still haven’t been to Hawaii. If I haven’t made it there by the time I’m retired, that’s the first big thing I’m going to do.

Wow, thanks for sharing your fun photos! That seahorse is adorable, and was that a towel twisted into a casual reader? Quite a work of art!
