In the summer of 2012, I travelled to Honolulu, Hawaii (Hawai’i) with my family for a vacation.

We stayed at The Ilikai, located at the western end of Wakiki in Honolulu, Hawai’i. Our room was spacious and had an awesome view of the beach!

The first thing we did, after checking in and dropping our luggage off in the room, was to head down to explore the beach!
