I know, I know! I am a couple of days behind! But the connectivity over here is so dang slow! So, hopefully I can catch you up a bit on the past few days here at lovely Ko Olina! Here are a few highlights from Tuesday...
We started the day with all you can eat pancakes at Hapa Grill, our favorite little breakfast cafe just down the road! Mmmmmm.....Coconut Syrup!!!
Then it was back to the hotel to spend the morning and early afternoon down at the beach. Here are the beach bums in their natural habitat...
After all of that time in the sun, there is nothing better than driving half an hour north to the town of Haleiwa for a delicious Matsumoto Shaved Ice, with vanilla ice cream in the bottom. Once again, the Hawaiian Delight was the best flavor of all....Banana, Coconut and Pineapple.
Then we drove about 3 miles down the coast in search of "Lost" beach, which is the beach where they shoot the camp and beach scenes of Lost, which is one of our favorite shows. Here we are on the beach, but how can we be sure? Alec and Chandler, run down the beach and see if you can see anything else....
Ah Yes! It is true! Here is the actual Lost base camp set where all of the base camp scenes are filmed. It was blocked off with bright orange fencing and had a 24 hr/day guard. The hull of the plane is back in the upper left of this photo, along with the orange tarp covered hut where Juliette operated on Jack's appendix. Sawyer's tent is back to the right, and the church that Mr. Echo was building is just 30 yards down the beach! We love our Lost! They will start shooting the Final Season in this very spot starting Monday the 5th, the day after we leave! :-(
We ended the day back in Haleiwa for some fine Hawaiian food...? Of course not! It was great Mexican food at Cholo's, where the fish tacos were made with real Ahi Tuna! Very Good Stuff! Well, that was a pretty good Tiki Tuesday! Back to the hotel to sleep...after all, it is like 2am in Utah!
