Carnival of Aloha
Aloha and welcome to the 8th Edition of the Carnival of Aloha! I don’t have any fancy transportation like Evelyn has provided for past carnivals, but the regulars on the beach are always willing to share their boogie boards. The surf has been a little sloppy lately, so who knows where it will carry us!
Angie presents Time for Hawaii Geocaches… posted at True Aloha. She’s included a link for beginners who want to learn about the fun of geocaching.
Pua presents Kayaking in Hawaii posted at Best Hawaii Vacation with Hawaii Vacation Blog, saying, “Kayaking the Hawaiian Islands goes back to the ancient tradition of the Hawaiians using Outrigger canoes.”
christa cw is a first-timer to the Carnival of Aloha, so make sure you show her a warm welcome. She makes me feel old by sharing the clubbing scene in [pics] secret society, Social Club, Party Shuffle, Incubus, Pancho’s Art, Hawaiian Paris Hilton, Living Room posted at Honolulu’s Nightlife Diaries.
Evelyn Hunter doesn’t cruise the club scene, but she went to sea just so she could get you a great story. Check out Smooth Sailing on the Star of Honolulu posted at Homespun Honolulu.
mel presents QE2 Stops in Hawaii for the Last Time posted at Mel’s Internet Universe Weblog, saying, “QE2 made her last port of call to Hawaii ever. She will be retired at the end of the year and sold to a firm in Dubai where she will become a floating luxury hotel, museum, retail complex and entertainment destination.”
Lynn Vasquez is on top of the world (well, at least on top of Tantalus Drive) as she presents some scenic photos in Lynn’s Lair II Aloha from Oahu!

j blu presents Aloha Friday Pictures of Hawaii | The Shops of Lanai posted at Local Kine Hawaii, saying, “Take a tour of the quaint, little shops of Lana’i town.”
Sheila presents Advice for Viewing the Big Island Lava Flow posted at Hawaii Vacation Blog - GoVisitHawaii.com, saying, “Getting to see the active lava flow into the ocean was a highlight of my recent trip to the Big Island. Calling it an amazing experience is an understatement. I put together these tips to help anyone wanting to go see the lava. This post includes everything from when is the best time to view the lava to tips for being safe.”
Finally, we’re back where we started, and I present Serene Interlude here at skeet’s stuff, sharing a quiet day in a country retreat.
Mahalo for riding the waves with us. Don’t forget to return your boggies boards to the boys as you tumble back onto the beach!

That picture makes me want to be in Hawaii so much! It’s beautiful there and the weather was awesome when we visited. We loved to sit on the beaches and watch the waves and the sunsets or walk along the beach in ankle deep water.

Well Charla - you’ll just have to get back over here! Sitting on the beach is great, but there’s so many other things to do, too. Hope you get to make it soon!

Mahalo for participating ,Christa! We needd some young blood to bring us a little vitality. Carnivals are all about finding new blogs to read, so you go it just fine. Hope you’ll plan on joining in again next time!
