All right guys.
So right now we're going to visit the bishop museum, the bernice bishop museum hunter, where are we are? We in a thank boat? Wow, yeah.
The last full day in hawaii today, we're going to go to this polynesian cultural center, but it's just too far.
Yeah.
It was closer to the airbnb we say that.
But since we left that place it's just too far now it'll be like an hour, drive there's too much too much.
Let me get your restaurant.
What you got in your hand, what are you eating? What are you eating? You got your corolla, that's, awesome elevator.
So for a lot of the morning hunter and caroline they play at this lagoon that's, a part of the hotel kind of by the beach, um.
And he must have just played a lot because he is knocked out and it's only about 15 after 10 in the morning and he's, usually not knocked out at that time.
Usually he sleeps after in the afternoon, but what they want to say is this there's this hotel right next to the hilton called the halcoa hotel, um that's, actually only for like military and like it's that the beach park is called fort deresi, right? It's like a military institution and the hotel right on the beach there, kelkoa hotel, it's, only for military, uh, um people, the armed surface services, or who I think may be formerly served I'm, not sure how that works.
I think they can give permission to like friends and family to stay as well.
It looks like a pretty sweet hotel.
Um, you know, they have their private beach over there with the blue umbrellas and um, they also have a really cool pool that uh, caroline saw, um from the outside.
The pool has like, um like a pirate ship on it.
It looks really cool.
But uh, you gotta be military to stay there and uh, neither caroline nor I have ever served in the armed forces.
So uh, not eligible.
But it was a great great hotel there, um.
But for now I think I was gonna walk hunter back to the room and uh, uh, let him nap in the room where it's nice and cool.
So if you're an instagram model, a very popular location here, obviously your instagram influencer shots.
All right.
So, uh, hunter is knocked out in a stroller in the room carson's up caroline's just hanging out with him.
Um, we just ordered takeout from this place called palace, simon it's about 20 minute drive from the hotel.
Um, simon is a hawaiian noodle dish.
Uh, I don't know a whole lot about it.
You can like look it up, but for understand it's like an egg noodle dish, uh, probably, you know, initially conceived by japanese immigrants to hawaii, um.
And this place is recommended to us.
So we're gonna get some simon noodles there it's like a noodle soup kind of thing.
Caroline ordered, I think some other stuff as well.
So I'm gonna head over there, pick it up for the family and then we're gonna take it back to the room and we're gonna eat it all right? So I should be coming up on it.
Shortly here, obviously, uh, not the most touristy part of honolulu we're, obviously out of the waikiki let's, see a sign for it there.
Oh here it is right here.
Palace, simon we're kind of hiding out in this back room because carson's sleeping in the other room.
So we got so many beast coolers.
What is this simon with? Uh, wonton, noodles, those are the little simon, noodles, right, yeah, simon with wontons.
This is like it was all right.
I feel like I've had better noodles in la.
I wasn't really impressed by it.
Maybe just compared to the awesome food.
We've had like throughout the strip.
And my standards are just like super high now, but uh, hundreds, enjoying the little beef things.
This is hunter's first exposure to spongebob squarepants all right guys.
So right now we're going to visit the bishop museum, the bernice bishop museum.
Sorry, my butchered that name it's like a fairly popular place.
You do have to reserve a time slot online tickets it's, not really time.
We have to tell them on monday.
We're gonna be here at two.
And then we can say, however, long we want until it closes, it looks fairly kid-friendly.
Instead of doing the palace I decided that this is probably a better bet because people were saying the palace, the iolani palace, isn't, the most kid-friendly place like they're, very particular about okay, kids, you gotta like not touch anything right? But this place is the museum is obviously meant to be like explored.
So it seems like a better bet.
So by look at this thing is this a telescope here, it kind of looks like they have a telescope or planetarium I'm, not sure it looks inviting looks inviting enough.
Yeah, mommy's, right there.
Okay, here we go.
All right.
This is cool it's a big field here.
Hunter, look at that it's fun.
This is a neat old house.
Sorry.
I did too much research about what exactly this is beforehand.
But so he said, it's, a big circle.
So I guess you can start here check inside there and look at all the stuff that's kind of around this loop.
Here, 1889 bernice, p, bishop museum.
I assume this was built probably, uh, I don't know before the ada, I don't see a ramp or anything so I'm gonna have to what did this building used to be.
Yeah, always ever since it started ever since it's filtered.
Oh, wow.
That's really interesting.
All right.
So we have some pictures of uh people from a long time ago, all right so looks like this is all about.
Uh, obviously, hawaii has kind of an interesting.
Oh, you want to see over here.
Look at all this cool stuff.
This cool artwork.
Wow.
So I suppose these are probably just like actuals, I would guess that's how big it really is right really want to make it unless it's like actual.
Wow.
Imagine like swimming alongside something like that for these guys hunter.
So these are these like polynesian gods or something.
This is like a hut traditional hawaiian sleeping house.
This is what people would so our camera can't really see it.
