So Bridgett did an episode of her "Sexiest Beaches" on the Travel Channel in Hawaii. I was curious what she would pick- Waikiki, or would she actually branch out and go for better? (TG and I went 'around Oahu on a Tour of Beaches, 50 in all, so I'm very well aquainted with a lot of them and cheer when someone picks something else).
Nope, straight to Waikiki. And hula-dancing lessons. Then she did some kind of excursion with a bubble on her head nearby. Off to the North Shore where she got "shaved ice" (I kept yelling at the TV, "It's SHAVE ICE") from somewhere that was definitely not Matsumoto's. Didn't even try or mention the Azuki beans either. Did a shark encounter. Flew over Kanae Point.
Headed to the Big Island and did some stuff with a volcano, a luau, and posing on a rock in a stream, but I fell asleep.
Still- I really wish someone would come over and REALLY look at Oahu for more than just Waikiki and parts of the North Shore. There's so many more things to do, and so many more gorgeous beaches, that I really want to smack everyone that says to me, "Oh, you were in Hawaii? We went and spent all our time at Waikiki Beach!" Why can't you get out and explore a little??? Even if you don't have a car, there's still other beaches within walking distance of the strip.
Or is a all a ploy by locals to keep tourists in one spot? Cuz maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing...
