Over the Water
Hi everyone,
How is 2011 treating you so far? It's amazing that we're stepping into another decade. It will be a promising year ahead. I hope you had a good new year's eve, the greatest moment that you shared your first kiss of the year with your loved ones. I was so blessed to be with my family in Honolulu and saw two incredible fireworks over the world famous Waikiki beach (one was from our hotel, one was public.). It was an exciting scene here; the cheerful voices and the noise of the firecrackers lasted all night long. One local man told me that the new year eve in Honolulu and all of Hawaii for that matter is all about fireworks. It remind me of the new year celebration in my city when I was young. I'd like to share some pictures of Honolulu's fireworks which I captured.
This is a view of the city and the Waikiki beach from our room, about 2 hours before the new year eve. I already heard the crazy noise of the firecrackers from the beach. A taxi driver warned us it would be extremely crazy in the city.
The fireworks. The pictures didn't do it justice.
There were tons of people standing along the Waikiki beach. This picture was taken from our balcony. My camera was able to capture one part of the beach (or a small part of the city).
All THE VERY BEST for 2011 to you and your family!!! Kisses...Hanh :)
Under the Pink Light
Watching the sunset is my first must-do when I have a beach vacation. I love watching the sunset. Seating on the beach, enjoying the breeze from the ocean, and watching the sunset I feel so calm, so happy, so romantic. Doing this is the the most romantic thing ever to do with your partner. I truly appreciated the sun more, it doesn't just bring life for us, but also brings its natural beauty for us to admire...Here are some sunset pictures of three different days which I captured at the Waikiki beach.
I hope you've enjoyed the beauty of our sun! Have a wonderful day ahead!! xoxo...Hanh :)
In Honolulu
These are some pictures from our last trip for New year Eve 2011 in Honolulu. The pictures below are the view of Waikiki beach from our room. Waikiki beach is one of the most famous beaches in the world.
At night.
It was kind of cool to look down to the Waikiki beach from our balcony at the 30th floors.
The fun at the beach. Diamond Head is ahead; one of the most famous volcanoes in Hawaii.
The view of the Diamond Head from the ocean.
I took this picture of the Diamond Head from my window seat when our plane took off.
The activities at Waikiki's lagoon are fun for family. My always favorite one is paddle board.
I tried to captured a part of Honolulu city and Waikiki beach from the ocean.
We love to have a drink at The House Without A Key at Halekulani Hotel before dinner. Listening Hawaiian music and watching the sunset with the Diamond Head view here is always a pleasure.
Rainbow Tower of Hilton Waikiki Hotel at night. This hotel offers beautiful fireworks on every Friday night. You can see it from Waikiki beach.
The ending scene of the Hawaiian Luau on the new year eve at the Hilton hotel was crazy. The Hawaiian food and live entertainment was great.
Down Town Honolulu is always exciting, especially at night.
We had an awesome lunch here. They had the best tuna-toro, salmon-toro ever.
Renting this tiny car to run around town is one of the fun things to do when you are in Honolulu.
These stairs is a secret way to 88Tees store where you can find fun t-shirts.
And here some more beautiful pictures that I captured.
Thank you everyone for visiting! Hope you all have a wonderful day! xoxo...Hanh :)
