Our first time fishing at the Hoomaluhia Botanical Garden. It’s catch-and-release fishing where you use barbless hooks. Fish are aplenty (and so are the mosquitoes), but you need to hike about 20 minutes to the fishing lake. Fun for kids and adults.
The spirit of Christmas is thriving as told by these light displays of Kaneohe homes. Each home had its own holiday theme, but surprisingly, I didn’t see Santa’s reindeer. Where did the reindeer go?
Merry Christmas!
Found some pics from the annual Kaneohe Christmas Parade on my camera. Didn’t stay long so here’s just a skoshi amount of pictures.
The best highlight during my short stay was this car and its hydraulics.

My oh my, how the face of Windward Mall is changing. I’ve made the comment once or twice that Windward Mall is a financial deathtrap, but it looks like the Mall has a pulse that’s only getting stronger.

Etched glass lines the second floor railings, cushy seating areas are now available, and everything looks more hip. Here’s a quick peek.
And to revive an old poll, I ask, “What’s your favorite Hawaii shopping mall?
With a change in schedules this year, our Christmas Eve was pretty simple and straightforward. During the day, we went to Bellows for fun, sun, and lots of sand.
Dinner for Christmas Eve was none other than Pizza Hut pizza! Activities included playing Frogger and checking out homes decked out with Christmas lights.
A simple but fun Christmas Eve.
A few reasons that Windward Mall is a (financial) death trap.
Let’s see if the new Farrells or Camille Velasco’s IHOP can revive business at the Mall.
