The Bachelor

I have to admit I have a love for this show. I have been a faithful viewer since the beginning (came out with "Survivor"). My mom and I love our Monday night Bachelor nights, this show is so funny! This season the Bachelor a doctor named Travis. Whether they find true love or not, it is so fun to watch these crazy women (who have had too much champagne) battle it out over this one guy.

Working girl

Well I am officially working at a large law firm! For the next two weeks I will be doing my practicum downtown. Long commutes, dress pants, and business meetings will be in my plans for the next while. It is quite exciting actually and I can't wait to put my skills to work!

Last night

 
Last night I went with Elyse and Monique downtown for dinner at SIP and then to Caprice for Sean's Birthday! 

 
I took this picture from the balcony, It turned out great because the strobe light was on the dance floor at the right time. 

Spa Pictures

The other night Lisa's friend Miranda and Sharon and I got together and took pictures for Miranda's spa. THe lighting wasn't very good so we had all the lights in the house piled on Lisa's coffee table.

Memories of Hawaii

Well I am home now, back home in the rain. Here are some of my favorite pictures from an excellent trip to Paradise!

Leaving tommorrow!

Tommorrow I depart Hawaii to go back home. I love it here, but I must say that I am ready to come home! I have been here 2 weeks and have done and seen alot of things. I will try to cram in as much as I can tommorrow, I am planning on going to the beach in the morning and soaking up some of the last Hawaiian rays. I think I will also get one of those delicious cinnamon buns for the plane!!

Makena Beach

Went to Big Beach (Makena). This is one of my favorite beaches, you can walk over this lava rock hill over to Little Beach which is also nice. Every Sunday all the hippies come to Makena (little beach) to play music and fire dance.

Fish!

There were some divers that were spearfishing this morning at Big Beach. They caught these fish and octopus. The guy also told me that he saw 2 white tail sharks out there when diving close to shore.

Snorkeling pictures from Hanauma

Lisa just emailed me these snorkeling pictures Quentin and I took with the underwater camera we bought! The fish we saw in Oahu at Hanauma bay were amazing! I wish the pictures showed how colourful and beautiful the fish were. You just have to trust me! :)

Sunset!

 
 

Getting ready for the sunset

 
I decided to take a video clip of the sunset tonight from my digital camera. If you close your eyes, sometimes the sun can drop and you can miss the sunset! 

handstand!

 
Here is Chris showing off at sunset with a handstand. 

riding in the back

 
I rode in the back of Jon's mustang. I love driving in convertibles in Hawaii. The views are amazing and the wind is not too cold. We went to the other side of the island, where we stopped in the surfing town of "Paia" and ate burgers. 

 
Me at Twin falls in Haiku! 

Waterfall Pictures

 
I felt like I was in the movie "The Blue Lagoon". Jon (Chris's friend from when he lived here) took us to this waterfall not many people know about. The water was crystal clear but kinda cold. It was great!! 

Cane spider

 
Cane spider we spotted on the hike up to the waterfalls! 

Waterfalls!

 
Today Jon took us to these Waterfalls! It was awesome!! I have always wanted to swim in a fresh water hawaiian waterfall! 

Sansei!

Tonight we lined up at Hawaii's famous Sansei restaurant for their half price menu starting at 10pm. Chris's friend Jon works here so we knew it was good (and went last year). It is award winning and has the BEST sushi and Karaoke. Yum!

It was voted "One of America's eight best Sushi Restaurants" by Travel magazine.
This picture is the mango & crab salad hand roll.

MAUI TROPICAL PLANTATION

 
Today we went to the Maui Plantation in Wailuku. It was great! We took the guided train tour and I learned so much about different fruits and flowers. We got to walk all around and saw a coconut demonstration. I also ate the best Macadamia nut chocolate ice cream!
