5 years


Mike and I celebrated our 5th anniversary in Hawaii on the island of Oahu.  We stayed on Waikiki Beach for 2 nights and then spent the rest of our vacation in a condo on the North Shore.  We drank lots of Mai Tais during this trip to Hawaii.  The best one was at the Royal Hawaiian on Waikiki Beach.  Mike and I did not stay there, we just pretended we did.



Highlights of our trip included: lots of Mai Tais, climbing Diamond Head, dinner at Nobu where Mike was very adventurous and let the chef choose his sushi, swimming with sea turtles right outside of our condo, Dole Plantation, Banzai Skatepark for Mike and Ehukai (The Banzai Pipeline) Beach right across the street for me, shave ice at Matsumoto's, Ali'i tour at Tropical Farms, the cute little town of Hale'iwa, and the quiet North Shore beaches.

Spass platz!


We spent the weekend in Leavenworth with Jen and Daren for Oktoberfest.  The weather couldn't have been more perfect - 75 degrees and sunny.  Remeber last year it was below freezing during Oktoberfest?!?  Many liters of good German beer were consumed, lots of bratwurst were eaten, and we danced like crazy fools.  It was a lot of fun!  Jen and I even made it on stage during the S-Bahn show where we sang Sweet Caroline!  So good!  So good!  So good!
