John & Jessica Day 6

Thursday was Jessica's Birthday and we took Jessica and John out to dinner. But the vacationing couple first got up early to catch the sunrise on Kailua Beach! Then they took off for the North Shore to find some "Lost" filming sights. I'd try to describe it to you, but Jessica does a better job, so you should read about it HERE on her blog. She also has lots of pictures inside the film camp - see them HERE and HERE.

I went in to work for the day so when I got home, we gathered up the birthday girl and went to Honolulu to catch the sunset on Waikiki beach at the Shorebird Restaurant. The Shorebird has become a favourite place. You order your food and after you've finished your salad bar, they bring out your steak, fish or chicken for you to cook on the grill. We had a great time going back and forth grilling and eating. They even sang "Happy Birthday" to Jessica.

After dinner, we walked the Waikiki "strip" looking at all the people and shops. We stopped in the International Marketplace and a couple of the 74 ABC stores (they are on every corner and even in between!) While we were wandering along the beach, we found the statue of Duke Kahanamoku.

As we waited for a photo opportunity, we overheard that there was a live web cam on, so John called Julia to tell her. Julia got online, looked up the web cam and saw all of us LIVE on Waikiki beach from Oklahoma! See the web cam right HERE (though we're not in front of it right now).

I think Jessica had a great birthday and it was wonderful for her to be here. Read her account of the day HERE. Only a couple more days left before flying back to Oklahoma City...
