Itâs whatâs on the inside that counts. History. Culture. Art.
Before Waze, there were the Way Finders. These Maritime navigators used the stars, the tides, and the wind to sail their vessels across the ocean to neighboring islands. At FestPAC, these sailors united to share the ancient techniques and preserve the knowledge for future generations. I was honored to learn just enough to appreciate and respect their craft. âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ @festpachawaii #festpac #festpachawaii #polynesianculturalcenter #polynesianislands #wayfinder #adventuretravels #hawaii #oahu #familytravel
Just yesterday was a time of firsts. First bath, first food, first ride in a shopping cart - too many firsts to celebrate in the confines of our hearts. But this year was a year off lasts. Last game of rec league flag football, last game of rec basketball and last day of middle school. We celebrated championship victories in all your last sporting events - it was a great way to end that era. Now, as you go off to high school, we hope all the lessons you learned both on and off campus - and the fields - will help you be a better friend, a harder worker, and a better problem solver. These are the skills that will serve you well as you crusade through the rest of your life but fear not! You will never be alone as long as we are living. As long as I am living my baby you will beâŚ.. âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ #graduation #middleschoolgraduation #milestones #familymoments
Iâm in Oâahu for six nights not for the beaches or the surf. Not for the resorts or the food though there is all that. Iâm here for the culture. For 10 days, 27 Polynesian First Nations are assembling at the 13th FestPAC to share their history, their advances, and their arts. Last night at the opening ceremony, the visiting nations took turns presenting tribute gifts and dances to the host nation of Hawaâii. I learned so much and it really felt like it might have when one sovereign visited another by canoe in ancient times. Except for the cameras, lights and stage. Otherwise, representatives from the visiting nations spoke in their own language which was translated into English and sometimes French. Today, the nations set up huts to share their creations with each other and the visiting public. There was also the official ceremony uniting Honolulu with Cook Island city of Rarotonga. Both city leaders signed a document and then there was joyful dancing. The one take away from these festivities is that most people that live on the islands are happy. Whatâs not to be happy about? Gorgeous weather, beautiful water and a bounty of healthy sea life to enjoy. âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ @gohawaii #MalamaHawaii #GoHawaii @visitoahu @festpachawaii #festpac2024 #pacificislands #culturalfestival #islandlife #familytravel
Ha Long Bay isnât as well known as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City but that should change. Our visit to the archipelago was a highlight of our 12 day trip with G Adventures. I wrote about it for Global Traveler Magazine for the May issue. Now available online on their homepage. âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ @globaltravelermag @gadventures #gadventures #familytime #familytravel #familytrip #adventuretravels #adventurefamilytravel #adventurefamily #familytours #vietnamtravel #vietnam #halongbayvietnam #travelwriter
Confession: I donât love the hikes around Los Angeles. The land is usually so parched and brittle it makes me irritated against the blaring sun rather than peaceful under cool green canopies. But we found an incredible hike 20 minutes from our house in Malibu. Escondido Falls was a verdant wonder. It was an hour and a half of outdoor joy that ended with an abundant waterfall đŚ I was so excited I told the boys and they want to join us next time. Wonders never cease. âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ #escondidofalls #hikesinla #losangeles #malibu #outdooradventure #familytravel #familyhike #boymom

Date night in Los Angeles involved a trip to K-town to the newly opened Lasung House. Unlike the Korean barbecue and kimchee that Iâm used to, this was a tribute to comfort food. Think fried fish, pork and shrimp. We enjoyed a warm udon soup and a cold buckwheat soup. âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ @lasunghouse #lasunghouse #ktown #koreatown #losangeles #food #koreanfood #datenight
We got to go camping again and of course the thing we love the most is the campfire and the sâmores. We stayed at San Diego metro KOA. KOAs are our favorite campgrounds because theyâre always the cleanest, most modern and include tons of extra activities for the kids (hot tub, bouncing pillow, rock wallâŚ). We worked with the GoRVing to learn about all the new recreational vehicles that just came out for campers. It was so nice to be surrounded by nature for a couple days! âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ @gorving #rvlife #camping #campingfun #familytime #familytravel #campfireparadise #koacamping
The Steel CurÂtain roller coastÂer is locatÂed in SteelÂers CounÂtry in KenÂnyÂwood, the first ever theme park area and coastÂer to be named after a proÂfesÂsionÂal sports franÂchise, specifÂiÂcalÂly the PittsÂburgh Steelers. Thereâs anothÂer area called KidÂdieland, which is devotÂed to clasÂsic attracÂtions for litÂtle ones like a merÂry-go-round. FoundÂed in 1898, the MononÂgaÂhela Street RailÂway ComÂpaÂny leased a popÂuÂlar picÂnic site, KenÂnyâs Grove, from Charles KenÂny in order to open a trolÂley park to encourÂage peoÂple to use the comÂpaÂnyâs trolÂley cars. If youâd like to stay closÂer to downÂtown PittsÂburgh, the FairÂmount is arguably the nicest hotel in PittsÂburgh, thatâs actuÂalÂly where celebriÂties usuÂalÂly stay when they are in town filmÂing movies!
I spent so much of my childÂhood going to Braves baseÂball games in Atlanta that I was sure thatâs what the nationÂal anthem meant (âand the home of the ⌠Braves?â). FamÂiÂlies also can tour HisÂtoric EbenezÂer BapÂtist Church where King was co-pasÂtor, an antique fire staÂtion that once served the area, and the visÂiÂtors cenÂter that feaÂtures an exhibÂit espeÂcialÂly for chilÂdren. Mountains Hotels near CenÂtenÂniÂal Olympic Park, like Hyatt Place or Embassy Suites, are close to the GeorÂgia AquarÂiÂum and the World of Coca-Cola R. Thomasâs gourmet dishÂes are vegÂeÂtarÂiÂan-friendÂly, and their kidsâ menu is popÂuÂlar for offerÂing childÂhood staÂples like peanut
Glen Ivy Hot Springs is the ideÂal Los AngeÂles day trip or weekÂend getÂaway oasis with pools made of dreams, deliÂcious CalÂiÂforÂnia-grown food, mud baths, a grotÂto, minÂerÂal baths, and masÂsages. TypÂiÂcalÂly Glen Ivy Hot Springs offers some evening events that are great to enjoy with a glass of wine or two, but they have stopped the evening activÂiÂties for now because of COVID. If you want to make a weekÂend out of your trip to Glen Ivy Hot Springs, then I would take a day to visÂit some of the local winerÂies because CalÂiÂforÂnia wine is amazÂing and even betÂter when you get to expeÂriÂence it where it is grown. The closÂest place to stay is StayÂbridge Suites if you would like to make a weekÂend out of your trip, but you can also make Glen Ivy Hot Springs a day trip!
