Oh, think twice... 'Cause it's another day for you & me in PARADISE! (god I love Phil Collins...)

Friends! We had a beautiful Thursday in O'ahu.... Here is how we spent our day...

My body woke me up at 6am, so what's a girl to do you might ask?! Why, GO TO STARBUCKS and start the day right of course!  Lots of catching up to be done on emails and Facebook!  (because we all know what's important on a honeymoon - coffee and Internet time.  Right?  Right??)

So when James joined me we just HAD to take a picture.... (with our his and hers mac books...)


Then it was off to have a wonderful adventure on Atlantis Submarines!  We had sprung for the extra legroom and bigger porthole to see the fishies and on our way to our appointment time I got a phone call telling me that "The visibility was too low to see the fish, and could we reschedule for later..."


 Well, when underwater currents upset your viewing you gotta go and make make some lemons outta that lemonade!  (vice versa - whatever...) So we rescheduled for Sunday - which is fine by me.

Fortunately James is a GENIUS and we decided to go shopping instead!  At the Waikele Premium Outlet Mall - it was Super fun!

We went to Banana Republic, BCBG, Tommy Bahama, Barneys New York, Sax off 5th, Coach and Polo Ralph Lauren!  James was crazy patient with me as I tried on every dress in BCBG - and finally settled on one that was over 75% off.  I love getting a good deal!  It's pretty and blue and I'm wearing it to the Japanese Steakhouse on Friday night!

Then we hopped back in Lola and went back to Waikiki to lay on the beach for a little bit ...


But mainly, we arrived home early to prepare ourselves for the crazy fun about to happen - we were going back to SIDE STREET INN!!!

Oh, Baby - we did some sweet sweet eating there with our friends Dietra and Jason last year... so of course we wanted to fill our gullets with the same delicious, fried, happy hormone enduring food!  De-lish!


We had the kim- chee fried rice (which James and I couldn't finish, but we made a good dent!)  I have also decided that Kim-Chee translated into English means "OHMYSWEETJeebus!It'sGOOD!".  Just a little something to add to your vocabularies...


Then we had the ribs of love.  I don't remember their name, but they were lovely and sweet - just like a rib should be...



Finally there was the deep fried pork chop.  Now friends, you haven't lived 'till you've had the deep friend pork chop...  Simply heavenly!


All in all a VERY successful trip to the Side Street Inn.  Neither of us had to undo our pants buckle after, and neither of us threw up.  I consider this a total win.  (as the last time we came last year I was moaning the whole way home from all the delicious food that was in my belly...)

Finally we finished off our evening by taking in a funny film called "The Change Up".  Enjoyable!  Would I rent it?  Sure!  It was a very fun end to a very fun day!  Here's to the next 12 days in Paradise!
