Dabawenya Babe goes to Hawaii

Snorkeling at Sharks Cove!

Hawaii really is beautiful!

It’s not just because of the highly publicized tv ad commercial that you can see on tv most of the time but because it really is beautiful. We’ve been living here for a year now and we never skip a weekend that we do not go to the beach. We snorkel, we boogie board ( I mean my husband since I can’t because I’m pregnant), we go crabbing, fishing and just about anything that you can do on the beach. You just can’t get enough of the blue ocean and the white sands.

Not to mention the beautiful weather and the warm water!

Take a look at these pictures we took last weekend. These were taken from Shark’s Cove in North Shore. Sharks Cove is one of the many snorkeling sites that you can visit in Oahu. I think the most famous one is Hanauma Bay. Sharks Cove’s fishes are not as big as the ones in Hanauma but there are plenty and of different kinds to swim and enjoy with, so it really doesn’t matter. Plus if you are a tourist, you pay an entrance fee in Hanauma Bay while  it cost nothing in Sharks Cove. Just pack your snorkeling gear, take your gps with you and drive to Sharks Cove. More »

My first glimpse of Hawaii

We’re finally in Hawaii, we arrived here few days ago and I’m merely tired of going out tonight or do something out that’s why I’m here in front of my laptop typing whatever comes into my mind and boring you lol.

Hawaii is a beautiful place, it reminds me of my “Davao”; the weather, lush grenery, exotic flowers, beautiful beach, warm people, Asian food and my kababayan ~maraming pinoy dito sa Hawaii. Wherever I go, I would always hear my own tongue spoken by some locals..it feels like home .

Anyway, you know beautiful has its price right? Hawaii is expensive..pretty darn expensive.

And that is especially if you go to the tourist area (is there any place in Hawaii where prices are not catered for tourist? if you know give me a holla) like Waikiki and which we are staying right now.

Hotel accommodation’s ranging from as low as $276 a night to (maybe) as high as thousands of dollars, that is of course because you have the beachfront view and you can technically walk a few feet and you’re on the shoreline.
