June Week 2 - Family in town for sun, fun and a little bit of racing on the windward side!

This Week’s Activity and Events:

This week we hosted our Nieces and Nephew from Virginia and treated them to the island and one of our races! The only thing we missed was J Dolan’s pizza the night before as we went to a Luau on the North Shore instead. If you’re coming to Oahu, Toa Luau in Waimea Valley is one of the best luaus! We have been to almost all of them on the island and this was our first time checking out Toa Luau as they are fairly new here (5 years) and located on the opposite side of the island from us. I know, you’re thinking, “hey, it’s an island, how far can it be?” Well, about 60 miles, so it is quite the trip, but I can confirm it was well worth it 😊

We competed in the Hoomau 10k on the Waimanalo side of the island for a beautiful sunrise run and our nieces and nephew performed awesome for their very first 10k, we are super proud! We also took them to Arizona Memorial, Hanauma Bay for snorkeling, Waikiki for surfing and sunshine, hiking Koko Head, Diamond Head and Makapuu Lighthouse. Was truly a fun filled week with them and hope they can come back again someday.
