I am so excited. We're heading to Honolulu one of my favorite favorite favorite places
This is by far my favorite hotel room ever I love the flowers on the wall and there's two beds a
large TV
Got some dressers and then look at this view. Oh my goodness
It's just so pretty and check out this stunning bathroom
There's the bath and shower right here
And then the toilet is actually like in an enclosed area. I am so excited to be here
I love love. Love Hawaii. We're super happy and just super grateful that I was given this trip
I'm gonna walk to my keiki Beach and I'm probably going to walk along the shops and maybe eat out one of the restaurants
We'll see for any of you who might not know Honolulu is on the island of Oahu
Have any of you guys ever been to Hawaii
What was your favorite island?
if you have been what was your favorite activity that you did on any of the Hawaiian Islands and if you haven't been here is
it somewhere that you would like to travel to so I'm just gonna wear my shorts and
Bathing suit top out because it's really hot outside and it's Hawaii
So I'm pretty sure bathing suit top and shorts is pretty common here
I'm leaving my hotel room right now. It's a little bit before 5:00
So I actually have a little over two hours until sunset
so my goal is to just go to the beach and hang out by the pool and
Probably just do as much as I can before the Sun Goes Down tonight
I
Am walking to buy kiki beach and then maybe I'll come back to the pool
I think some of my crew members are meeting up there later to watch the sunset
So we'll see if I can catch up with any of them
They have been to Honolulu before I was here for a layover in December
however
I obviously didn't have a YouTube channel then so I didn't vlog it
But I'm excited that I get to bring you guys along for this trip. I think this is going to be a really awesome layover
Honestly, I haven't spent a whole lot of time at the beach I am so tired
I have to cut myself some slack though
Because I did just work an eight-hour flight to get here and there's a five hour timezone difference between here in Dallas
So in Dallas, it's about 11 p.m. Right now a bird
Oh
My gosh, is there a flock of pigeons right here? I'm being very brave
Okay, I hate birds they just freaks me out I'm gonna go back to the hotel and
Probably lay out by the pool and swim because it looks beautiful. And I think I'll be able to watch a really nice sunset
Oh, it's gonna be a nice and relaxing night here in Hawaii
It's Wendy up here by the pool, but you guys this pool is amazing
Let me show you it's like a bar where you can eat and drink and then there's also like a little infinity
I
Just got back to my hotel room as you guys can see I have such a wonderful crew
It was so much fun getting to hang out with them by the pool, and we also got to watch an amazing sunset
It's 8 o'clock here right now, which is really 1 o'clock Dallas time
so I am
exhausted so I am going to
Shower and then go to bed and I will see you guys in the morning when I get ready to go hike
The Sun is coming up. Look how beautiful the sky is
Good morning everyone. It's about
7:20 a.m. I've been up since like 4:00. Hello jet lag
I just finished getting ready me and one of my crew members
Jeanette are going to meet up downstairs and we're gonna take it over to a manoa fault
I don't think it's a super strenuous hike it's only like a mile and a half round trip
So it's really not bad
But I looked at pictures online and it did look really pretty for the most famous hikes and Honolulu is Diamond Head and I did
Do that hike last time I was here. It's not very often that I get to come here
So I want to do as many different hikes as I can on my layover
So if anyone who is watching this video has been to Honolulu and has hiking suggestions
please let me know in the comments below because I am just
Always adding to my list of things that I want to do on future lay overs
You just excuse the mess back there, but this is just what I'm wearing hiking. I'm so glad I remembered tennis shoes
These are old ones so I don't really care if they get dirty
I only have one pair of shorts since I was on standby and then a crop top
Because it's probably gonna get hot and I'm probably gonna get sweaty
I'm with my crew member Janette
And we are about to go hiking, Manila Falls
Thanks for inviting me Julia. Of course. It's gonna be super fun
So we're trying to figure out which direction we go. Our uber driver was awesome. And this whole area is so pretty
Hi guys, are you gonna go hiking too?
You
Hike with super-slippery and I did get pretty dirty coming down luckily they have this little station to wash your feet off
We just finished our hike it was awesome and now we are at the international marketplace
This is a really popular shopping area in Honolulu
Jeannette really wants to find some of these cookies that she really likes and I want to maybe get some souvenirs
So we'll see what we find
We have samples of the cookies, but you can try and I feel like I'm definitely going to try a few
This is the chocolate dipped cookie
And this one is the white chocolate
Coconut white chocolate coconut
I
Love white chocolate
They have a white chocolate dipped. Macadamia. I'm gonna try that one. I think I'll really like this one
So this is what it looks like
Oh, I'm done with my favorites the white chocolate the white chocolate dipped in macadamia is good
Look how cute these are they're in a little pineapple shapes
I'm back in my hotel room after what was such a fun morning now
my plan is I'm gonna go sit out by the pool for a little bit come back to my room shower and nap and then
It's already time to get ready for work again
I feel like this is one of those flyovers that you just never want to end
My shoes are so dirty after that hike but I did find a laundry bag in the closet
So I'm gonna put my shoes in here before I put them in my suitcase so it doesn't get everything else dirty
Also on this trip
I feel like I have finally found a really good pair of sunglasses
The Brandis son gave my sister Poppy's for me for my birthday. And I love them. You can purchase them on Amazon
So if you're looking for some new Sunny's I will put the link to them in the description box below
My time in Hawaii is coming to a close and I am genuinely really sad like I do not want to leave
it's just such a beautiful place and everyone was always so happy and I mean
How could you not be happy in a place as beautiful as this this is obviously one of my favorite lay overs
I am just so so so grateful that I was able to get a trip here
I definitely had a lot of moments on this trip where I just thought to myself
Holy crap. I love my job. Like is this really the life I get to live is this really what I get to do?
I need to be downstairs in about ten minutes
We're going to take the shuttle to the airport and then head back to Dallas our flight tonight leaves Honolulu at 7:45 p.m
And then we're scheduled to arrive back in Dallas tomorrow morning at 8:15 a.m
And for those of you who have been following me on my channel since day one just in case you were wondering
Yes, I did cut my hair. Oh, and I did get some really cute new earrings. It's just a little flower and
The earrings were about $30, which is normally a lot more than I would spend on earrings, especially on a layover
but I mean
how often do I really get to come to Hawaii and I saw them and I really wanted them so I splurged and I also
Think they'll be super cute for my vacation, which is less than two weeks away now at this point
I
Have my new super cute magnet up from Hawaii
It's also next to my picture from the black sand beach in Kona
If you're decorating your fridge with magnets
would you do all of one side first or should I like keep it even and start doing magnets on the
Left side of the fridge. I made it back home. The flying time was six hours and 45 minutes
I did have a break on that flight and I slept through it
But an hour and a half, it's just not enough sleep for an entire night now that I'm home
I'm gonna eat some breakfast take a nap and then probably just watch Netflix all day because I am just
Useless to the world after I work a long overnight flight like that
