ALOHA ALL! Welcome to day two of our Hawaiian vacation! I have truly fallen in love with Honolulu and after this set of photos, I think you’ll fully understand why. Let me just start by saying that thank goodness St. Louis is five hours ahead! It made it SUPER easy for us to get up and take sunrise pictures this morning! Also, Sharon Brown, I’m certain you’ll find plenty you love in this post! I was thinking about your comment on the last blog as we walked around the gardens of our hotel and took several plant and flower photos! It was fantastic as the weather was a wondrous 79º and sunny with a light breeze. It truly is Heaven on Earth here.








































Even though I felt like death on day one, I could sense I was going to love it here. Yes, the weather is absolutely perfect, but the people here are THE BEST! EVERYONE IS SO FRIENDLY! Melissa and I were able to get as many couples photos as we did because people would see us taking pictures of one another and walk over to ask if we wanted to get one together. So nice. We had dinner at The Cheesecake Factory this evening and the concierge called me to let me know that he was thrilled to inform me that our wait would actually only be twenty-five minutes versus the hour he had originally told us. I would never have expected that level of service! YES! We ate at The Cheesecake Factory because it is a solid staple of our friendship with Kamber and we’ve had some of our best (and worst) times because of that restaurant, so anytime we’re together, that’s where we go. The people are so hospitable and lovely here and it’s no question why, they’re living in paradise! I’m so happy for them and am so happy to be here!
Again, THANK YOU so much for joining me on this journey even if it’s just through my photographs! I appreciate it greatly! Hope you all enjoyed this day’s worth of pictures! PLEASE feel free to leave me a comment below, you all know I LOVE reading and responding to them! Tomorrow we’re heading to Pearl Harbor and I absolutely cannot wait for what I’m sure will be both a somber and incredible experience. MAHALO!

🌴Aloha, my dearest friends, Ben & Melissa! It’s so refreshing to see your beautiful smiles everywhere you go in Hawaii. I’m so happy you were able to enjoy your well deserved vacation and loving every minute of it. Thank you sharing your daily posts. Like I said before, you should consider getting a book published someday. Stay safe and God bless! Mahalo from your friend always, Edward
Thank you so much, Edward! It’s truly enchanting here! I knew I was going to love being here, but my expectations have been blown out of the water! I’m in complete & total love! I plan on getting a book published & am working on that now, but love takes time & it has certainly been a labor of love! I’ll get there though, I know it!
That very first picture I thought it looked like a body in the water! The second picture explained it all 😂 Are all those children in the water Kamber’s?!! 😲Melissa looks like a beach model in that hat and sun glasses! Lookin good girl! 🥰 Those flowers are beautiful, I hope Sharon Brown enjoyed them. I can’t wait for tomorrow’s post! Love to all. 😘
Kamber & Charles have three kids: Kaell, Maerick, & Charlie. Cade & Sam are Kamber’s younger brothers as they’re here with her dad & step-mom as well. Melissa’s loving it here too! Thank goodness! The flowers around here are breathtaking! This place is paradise!
Wow, it looks like a tropical paradise! I’m so glad you guys are enjoying the sun and having the best time! I love the color of Melissa’s bathing suit and that hat is too cute! Can’t wait to see even more fantastic pictures!
