HAWAIIAN OUTPOST BLOG

One of the more relaxing things to do is to sit on the beach in the morning when the air is still crisp. This morning was such a morning. After an eventful week at the office, it was time for a change of pace. So I hopped in my trusty car and headed north...past the pineapple fields, past Haleiwa Town, and on to the beaches of the famous North Shore of Oahu. After buying a gigantic cup of coffee from Ted's Bakery (a great place for breakfast), I headed over to a beach and planted my butt at the water's edge. As I dug my toes into the sand I could feel the stresses of life in the real world melting away.

The good thing was that there were only about 7 other people on the entire beach! Try that in Waikiki. I floated on my back for a few minutes and stared at the sky. It sounds boring but it was really quite fun. I would have taken a picture but I didn't want to get my camera wet. Anyways, if you want to experience the better beaches of Hawaii, you gotta get out of Waikiki and Ala Moana. Anywhere on the North Shore is good as well as Kailua Beach Park and Lanikai. I like Lanikai. I think I'll go there next.
