To cap off our week in paradise, we decided to partake in some touristy activities. We went to Ala Moana Beach Park and to Ala Moana Center.

Ala Moana Center doesn't have to be a mall where you spend all you money on gifts, there are other attractions at Ala Moana such as the food court, the food at Shirokiya, the Koi fish and the performances on the stage. There is always affordable options to places that can be expensive.

At Ala Moana Beach Park, we saw three couples taking their wedding photos. This reminded us that Hawaii is paradise for those who aren't from here. We really hope you enjoyed what we had to show you. We tried to mix a local point of view with that of a tourist to bring you the best and affordable activities.

Make it a Tuesday

Tuesdays are a bargain on the island. We went to Taco Tuesday and enjoyed a $6 Movie.

Taco Tuesday happens a few places on the island. Many people say Serg's Mexican Kitchen is the best Mexican food on the island. There's also Taco Tuesday at Dave and Busters, right next to Ward Stadium. So that is convienent, but the selection at Dave and Busters Taco Tuesday isn't as extensive and there are no alternatives for people who do not like tacos. 

We enjoyed a $6 movie at Consolidated Ward Stadium. Hot dogs were $1 and popcorn was only $2. There are also $6 movies at Regal Dole Cannery Stadium. All day tuesday they offer $6 movies. We recommend going early when its not to busy and everyone is at work and at school. 

Day 5

Aloha, today we were hoping to relax and enjoy the beauty of the island.

We went to Mt. Tantalus and to Pu'u Ualaka'a State Park. They are basically in the same place, along the way up the mountain there are a few scenic points. We focused on two main spots where there is a clear, unobstructed view.

Please be safe driving up and down since the roads are really curvy and a little steep. We recommend going towards sunset times and at the park, you can stop by your neighborhood 7-11 or ABC Store to buy some spam musubi and have a small picnic while you enjoy the sunset. 

Foodie Day Four

Hope you guys aren't too tired to keep enjoying what the island has in store. Today we decided to go to two different food places because we could not decide between the two. We went to Curry House and Yama's Fish Market.

Curry House has many locations on the island so feel free to pick one that is close to you. With Curry House, you can trust the consistency among the different locations, you can trust they have the same things on the menu and the food will taste just as great. Here you will find a link that leads you to the available locations on the island.

Yama's Fish Market is the only one on the island but there are other local eateries similar to it. At Yama's they have a wide selection of fresh poke and hawaiian food.
