Today is "buffet day", so we don't have a fixed schedule and (almost) everything we wanted to see we have seen. During breakfast, we discuss what we want to do today.

I would have liked to visit the North Shore again, as we couldn't do everything on our to-do list there due to traffic jams and lack of time, but I am immediately outvoted. The family doesn't feel like long car rides.

My husband and daughter want to go surfing, while my son wants to chill or hop on the waves.

Hmm...

So we split up in the morning. My husband and daughter walk to Waikiki Beach to rent a surfboard, while I go to the rooftop terrace with my son, where he can splash and chill in the pool. I will dedicate my time to my photos and travel journal. Relaxing can also be nice.

However, it doesn't take long before my husband and daughter are back. There is no wind outside and there are no waves either. So unfortunately, no more surfing to end the vacation.

We relax together on the rooftop terrace, then we eat our last microwave meals and a salad, and then we decide to visit Makapu'u Beach for a second time, where we had so much fun wave hopping yesterday.

We already know the route. Today is much less crowded than yesterday, and the waves are huge again. We spend the afternoon until 5 PM at the beach.

Wonderful!

On the way back, we stop at Sandy Beach, where many surfers and bodyboarders are on the beach. The waves here are very rough, so swimming is not really possible.

Despite that, there is a party atmosphere on the beach. Many food trucks are here, but they are packing up as we want to treat ourselves to some ice cream.

We sit on the upper beach, where it's not very crowded, and enjoy the evening sun before heading back to Honolulu.

There is a "Denny's" on the ground floor of the Imperial Hawaiian, where we actually wanted to have dinner, but it is very air-conditioned and smells strongly of a toilet. We decide to place an order that we can pick up after 20 minutes and enjoy it comfortably in our small "living-sleeping room".

Now comes the unpleasant part of the vacation: packing our suitcases. This time for the last time, because tomorrow it's time to say goodbye. We're going back home 😰
