Waimanalo Beach

Waimanalo on Oahu was one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever been to – and as a beach lover, I’ve been to a few…

It looked like a travel agent’s poster. Maybe it actually is the beach on some of those posters.

The beach was almost empty that day, except for handful of people. There was a local man walking his dog, and a sunbathing couple further away.

I saw a little blue jellyfish washed up on shore and I was careful not to step on it, as it might’ve still stung. There were people paragliding above a nearby hill.

It felt like time had stopped – for just that afternoon, I didn’t have to think about anything else.

Would love to! I lived in Brisbane as a kid and that’s where my love for beaches originated 🙂 I wish I still lived there, but now I wouldn’t be visa eligible anymore (too old, over the visa-critical age of 30!). Of course I can still visit 🙂 Visited Whitsundays 15 years ago and other places… Snorkeled in the Great Barrier Reef and saw a cassowary in the rain forest in Daintree. Maybe I should do a nostalgic blog post about it, just haven’t gotten around to it yet! So much to blog about! 🙂

I’ve got quite a few Aussie followers so I don’t know if it’d be received well or not if I blogged about it – though I guess it’s always interesting to read about your home country 🙂 Will do so 😉 And yes, I’m definitely a convert, haha! 😉 Have a great weekend!

Ohh myyy!! I need to bookmark your blog to check the beautiful places in Hawaii when we plan to go there someday 😀 The beach looks splendid and I never thought I would say this in my life, but this one does beat the beaches of Maldives! I mean the turquoise color and the serenity is the same but the backdrop of mountains for the beach! That you will not get it in Maldives.

Yeah, I liked Hawaii more than the Maldives, there’s so much more. (The Maldives must look spectacular from above, though, but I didn’t get to see the views from the plane) Hope you do visit Hawaii one day! I loved it!

Oh no, sorry if you thought that! 🙂 By the way, Snow is just my nickname here on WordPress, but I actually knew a girl once who was called Lumi, which is Snow in Finnish. So theoretically, it could be someone’s real name! 🙂 Lots of bloggers call me with different abbreviations they made up, like SSW, and I really don’t mind at all. I know I should introduce myself better… maybe some day.

Ohh okie 😀 Yes , I respect your thoughts of being private till you feel comfortable 🙂 And am glad that I did not miss your name 😀 I make sure I know the names of all the blogs I follow 🙂 Makes it easier to relate to them and have a conversation. I love your blog and follow it quite avidly and was actually mortified to know I did not know your actual name till yde! I am so happy that its sorted out 🙂 I will call you Snow if its ok with you 🙂
