Waikiki Beach

Day 1: Hanging around Waikiki
Our penultimate day was spent at Waikiki Beach. The weather was kind to us once again as we wandered up and down the beach front with every other tourist on earth. We pulled the pin on these shenanigans at around 4.00pm and had a swim.
We’ll spend all of tomorrow at the airport and on the plane and I’m looking forward to getting home after so long on the road.
It’s been an awesome adventure!!

Day 2: We're going home
Today was spent traveling back to Australia 🇦🇺. As much as we enjoyed our adventure it is always good to get home. We are missing our boy, our bed, our house and our way of life.
We really do live in the best country in the world and we should take the time to remember that.
Love,
Wade and Angela x
