Hawaii Day Four

Thursday November 24th

Gobble Gobble Gobble!
Thanksgiving in Oahu was truly special for many reasons!! It was the first time since my sister joined the navy we were able to spend the Holiday with her, we were surrounded by Gods Beauty, and we ate like Kings and Queens ... for real!! ;) {God has truly poured out his favor on our lives!}

Today was a "low-key" day Holschen style ... which means it was still jam packed ... but with a lot of relaxation throw in.

We went hiking the Judd Trail off the Nu'uanu Pali highway {through a natural bamboo forest and waterfalls} had a snack at McDonalds {it was quick and light}, spent hours on Lani kae Beach {a top 10 beach in the world} and enjoyed the Oceanariums all you can eat Thanksgiving feast!!

Thanksgiving dinner was spectacular!!
We ate at the Oceanarium Restaurant in Pacific Beach Hotel.
It was an all-you-can eat smorgasbord og prime rib, turkey, pork loin, salmon, crab legs, sushi and a ton of other items.

It was even better then it sounds.
So unbelievably delicious!
