Kakela Beach Dec 2011

Ted's Bakery

Is in my top 5 places to eat on Oahu. Everyone loves their plate lunches but they have THE BEST eclairs and carrot cake. It's to die for! I always skip lunch and just have the carrot cake.
Or i grab one of their ready made sandwiches if we are heading to the beach.
Tommy loves the Chantilly cake. We can't find it anywhere here in Utah :(. Actually, that is probably a good thing!
But pretty much everything on the menu board is to die for!

Warning: Strong Current. Do Not Swim.

It didn't stop this guy and many more from hoping on their boards and heading out.

North Shore

Jim and Susie are so cute!

King of the Jungle

Cruising back from the Pali Lookout was so pretty.

We pulled over to see if anyone wanted to swing from a vine.

LOL! Here is Tarzan himself!

Hanging out with the Turtles

at around 3ish pm you can see these huge sea turtles swim up and kick back on the this beach.
(I don't know what this beach is called but it is a little bit before Hali'ewa.)

Landing in Hawaii.

Tommy and I went to Hawaii for the first part of Dec. We took the shuttle to pick up the rental and I think this is the first time we realized how easy it is to cruising without kids.

You know your in Hawaii when...

You find yourself driving through a mountain.
or

You see all this:

Rainbows, waterfalls, beautiful lush mountains and a chicken hanging out off the side of the highway.
We were headed to the North Shore to Tommy's mom's house.

Hitting a few of our favorite places along the way.

The Waikane Store for some mochico chicken and sushi.

Here is the master at work:

Yes, this is a place most would never stop at but trust me... YOU ARE MISSING OUT if you don't!
