Oahu has the finest collection of fodorites ever seen! How's that?

smooch back at ya.

Much love and aloha for MomDDTravel... O'ahu heightens the senses and makes you smile down to your toes... smell ginger.

awwhhhh it!!!

DON'T EVEN CARE THAT I'M 3 YEARS LATE

I love love love the smell of REAL Plumerias (nothing can quite capture it)

I love eating Hawaiian French toast from Papa Oles with a juicy dragon fruit

I love driving up and down Kamehameha Hwy with no particular destination

I love kayaking to the Moks (even when I make a crash landing hehe)

I love feeling the powdery soft sand between my toes, standing on Lanikai beach

I love the people, who treat you like a friend from the moment they meet you

I love falling asleep and waking up to the gentle, soothing trade winds

I love how foolish I look while trying to tread water and get my fins on at the same time

I love sitting and staring out at the beautiful, glistening, clear ocean and feeling like time doesn't exist

I love waking up each morning and picking a new snorkel spot

I love hiking different places and always being surrounded by lush plants

I love how the natural beauty, everywhere, and how it never ceases to put me in a state of absolute awe. (Even when I'm trying to focus on driving lol)

I love everything about the sincerity & unique qualities of the North Shore

I love the humble & kind spirit, relaxed pace, and lack of entitlement of people who have embraced the island way of living.

I love that no matter how many random chickens I saw wandering around, it never failed to make me stop & go "wait...huh?"

I loved every time I was snorkeling or kayaking & a Honu would swim with me or peek it's little head up like it was just stopping by to say "hey"

I loved the gorgeous Polynesian men everywhere (don't lie, ladies, they're not exactly an eyesore ;D )

I love Oahu. I love Hawai'i. I miss it every single day. And there's just nowhere that quite competes.

ALOHA! I can't believe this thread is still breathing!!! Why I love O'ahu... golden sinking sand on KeIki beach... hunting for sunrise shells with crashing surf splashing salt all over me!!! Aaaahhh the memories...

Chinatown!
