Loco Moco Plate Lunch

Loco Moco Plate Lunch

Whenever we don’t feel like cooking, we head on down to one of the many “drive-ins” here in Hawaii for a plate lunch. One of our favorites is the Loco Moco here in Ewa Beach.
Ironically, I don’t normally have the Loco Moco, which is rice with hamburger, gravy and an egg … but […]

Iroquois Point Elementary School

Another one of the things that I’ve enjoyed about living here in Iroquois Point during my assignment here in Hawaii is that the elementary school is about a 5 minute walk from our house. The kids get up every morning, meet up with their friends and head off to Iroquois Point Elementary School. […]

Best Pizza in Hawaii

The Honolulu Zoo

Honolulu Zoo BirdOne of my favorite places on the entire Island of Oahu is the Honolulu Zoo.

It’s not by any means a big zoo. But, it’s wide open, with lots of places for the kids to run around and play. And, the best part is, if the day’s a little too hot, Waikiki beach is right across the street.
