Morrison Family: North Shore, Hawaii Trip

We went to Oahu with the Riese family and my parents. Adam and I haven't been to Hawaii in five years and it was Liliana's first trip. She loved it. We stayed at the Billabong surf team house which was beautiful and located directly on Pipeline beach in North Shore. It was really cool to sit in our house and watch amazing surfers on one of the most famous breaks in the world. The waves were too big for the girls to swim in front of the house, but there were tidepools and a really nice beach in front of Turtle Bay resort just a short drive away. We spent a couple days at the beach at Turtle Bay because the beach was perfect for the kids and they had a bar on the beach...2 very important things in our crew.

We went to a luau one night and Liliana loved it. She got on the stage and did the hula and has been practicing her moves and singing the song ever since.

On our last day there, we went with my parents to the Kahala resort where they were going to stay alone for a couple of nights after we left. We signed Liliana up for the dolphin encounter, which she really liked. She learned a lot of interesting facts about dolphins and got to interact with them, touch them, and kiss them.

Making bouilebaisse with Grandpa. This is their favorite beach activity together. They work for an hour chopping vegetables, adding spices and fish...
