WAIPA IN REAL LIFE

MY INTRO

ALOHA AND WELCOME TO MY PERSONAL BLOG!!! I THOUGHT WHY NOT SHARE MY PERSONAL GAINS & STRUGGLES THAT LIFE PUTS OUT TO EACH AND ONE OF US. I FEEL THAT THROUGH THE GIFT OF "GIVING & SHARING", THERE IS NO WAY BETTER THAN START THIS BLOG WHICH IS ALL ABOUT ME, MY OHANA (FAMILY), HOALOHA (FRIENDS), AND EVEN ENEMIES WHICH ARE THE VERY ONES I NEED TO LOVE AND ACCEPT.

I'LL SAY THIS STRAIGHT UP, I DON'T HOLD BACK MY FEELINGS FOR ANYONE AND IT'LL COME OUT OF MY MOUTH ON HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOU AND OTHERS. I DON'T GO BEHIND ANYONE'S BACK AND START RUMOURS WITH HOPES THAT IT WILL CIRCLE AROUND AND FINALLY HIT ITS TARGET. WHY TAKE THE LONG ROUTE WHEN I CAN GO STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. PERSONALLY, I THINK THAT IS THE "REAL" WAY OF LIVING LIFE, "BE REAL" AT ALL TIMES EVEN WHEN THE WORLD IS WATCHING.

ON THE OTHER NOTE, "I AM" THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE FROM THE WAY "I SEE IT". I AM NOT SPEAKING FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S FEEDBACK OR "CONCEITEDNESS". "THIS IS" WHAT I CHOOSE TO SEE MYSELF EVERYDAY WHEN I WAKE UP FROM MY BED AND THANK "AKUA" (GOD) FOR GIVING ME ONE MORE DAY TO LIVE, REGARDLESS OF REGRETS FROM THE "YESTERDAYS" TO THE FEARS OF "TOMMOROWS".

IN MY EYES, LIVING A "BEAUTIFUL LIFE" CAN ONLY BE ATTAINED BY "CHOICE" AND IT REQUIRES "INTEGRITY", "HONESTY", "UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE", "FORGIVENESS" AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, "LOVE".

AS MY BEAUTIFUL ANCESTORS HAVED ALWAYS BELIEVED:

'Ike aku, 'ike mai, kokua aku kokua mai; pela iho la ka nohana 'ohana.

WHICH MEANS, RECOGNIZE OTHERS, BE RECOGNIZED, HELP OTHERS, BE HELPED; SUCH IS A FAMILY RELATIONSHIP.

SO ONCE AGAIN, "WELCOME TO MY BEAUTIFUL LIFE!!!"

ALOHA EVERYONE!!!

WHILE IN NEW ORLEANS WE WANTED TO VISIT SEVERAL PLANTATIONS AND ONE OF THEM WAS THE MYRTLES PLANTATION

SO MONDAY MORNING WE WOKE UP VERY EARLY AT 6:00AM AND HEADED OUT FOR A BEAUTIFUL MORNING DRIVE TOWARDS OUR DESTINATION.

DO WE LOOK HUNGRY???

OF COURSE WE DO, SO WE MADE A PIT STOP IN BATON ROUGE... AND ATE AT ANOTHER RUBY RED SLIPPER CAFE, ITS ONE OF VICKIE'S FAVORITE PLACES TO EAT!!!

SHE JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT HOLLANDAISE SAUCE AND EGGS BENEDICTS!!! GOTTA LOVE "DEM DIMPLES"... LOL!!!

AFTER OUR YUMMY BREAKFAST, BACK ON THE ROAD AND FINALLY WE HAVE ARRIVED AT THE FAMOUS AND MOST HAUNTED PLANTATION IN THE NATION, THE MYRTLES PLANTATION

AS SOON AS WE ARRIVED, WE WERE GREETED WITH THIS BEAUTIFUL BRICK STONE FRONT PATIO AND WE LOVED IT ALREADY!!!

WE WENT AHEAD AND GOT REGISTERED FOR THE NEXT TOUR!!!

THE OUTDOORS WAS A SIGHT TO SEE...

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU GO AND VISIT THIS AMAZING PLANTATION AND APPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF THIS PLACE PLUS ITS HISTORY AND TO WHY ITS FAMOUSLY KNOWN TO BE THE MOST HAUNTED PLACE IN AMERICA.

NOW WE ARE HEADING BACK TO NEW ORLEANS WITH ANOTHER PIT STOP TO GAS UP.

THIS PLACE IS NOT POLYNESIAN FRIENDLY, LOL!!! WHAT I MEAN IS BACK HOME IN HAWAI'I NEI, ITS COMMON TO ENTER ANY STORE WITH "NO SHOES" & "NO SHIRTS" AND STILL GET SERVICE. TRUE FACT OF HAWAI'I NEI.

AFTER GASSING UP OUR CAR, VICKIE WANTED TO DRIVE AND SO WE HEADED BACK TO NEW ORLEANS AND TOOK A BACK ROAD DETOUR AND ENJOYED THE CRUISE!!!
