My parents surprised me by putting my best friend, Zoe, and me on a plane to go to Hawaii! When we landed, Zoe and I first booked an elegant, 5-star hotel called Poi. I wondered why it was called that. Zoe insisted that she pays for half of the price and I pay for the rest of the price.<\/p>\n
In the hotel, we ate amazing foods. I ate poi, strawberries, and a banana while drinking poi juice. Zoe appetized on strawberries, a banana, and fish while drinking a glass of nice and cool watermelon juice. Now I realized why the hotel was called \u201cPoi\u201d. It was because it had a lot of poi snacks.<\/p>\n
Next, we saw people hula-dancing. Even some children were dancing! They wore flower leis. We decided to join in on the fun! But first, we bought leis. Then <\/em>we danced to the Hawaiian music. Zoe asked me if we could have lunch because all the hula-dancing was making her hungry. I answered, \u201cYes! We\u2019ll have their special dessert!\u201d<\/p>\n We went back to our hotel and ate a delicious, sweet treat: pineapple upside-down cake!<\/p>\n After that, we got a great helicopter tour of Kilauea! It looked so cool! Zoe and I took pictures and sent them to our friends. We were awestruck by the eruption of the volcano.<\/p>\n Zoe and I got off of the helicopter and then took another flight to visit Honolulu, Oahu. We booked another hotel there called The Honolulu Hotel. \u201cWhat a funny name for a hotel!\u201d Zoe said, laughing hysterically. We walked inside the hotel and ate an appetizing breakfast. Zoe and I ate pineapple slices, strawberries, and a banana. We also drank pineapple juice. Then, we rushed outside to visit the largest maze in the world! We finished the maze in no time!<\/p>\n Zoe and I walked back to our hotel. We were so tired! We slept for five hours and then it was already dinnertime. So Zoe and I ate pineapple slices and drank pineapple juice. We went back into our hotel room and brushed our teeth, got dressed in our PJs, and went to bed.<\/p>\n The next morning we had to wake up at six because we had to fly to Kauai to visit Mount Waialeale. We got ready and took a flight to the garden island.<\/p>\n When we reached our destination, we first booked our last hotel: Kokea. The food was so scrumptious! We ate strawberries, pineapples, and poi again. Then we visited Mount Waialeale: the rainiest spot in the U.S.<\/p>\n Zoe and I saw so much rain falling. It\u2019s a good thing that we learned about Mount Waialeale in social studies! Otherwise we would\u2019ve gotten soaked wet in the rain! I told Zoe, \u201cMount Waialeale gets about 460 in. of rain a year!\u201d She responded, \u201cWow! That\u2019s a lot of rainfall!\u201d<\/p>\n Finally, it was time to say good-bye to Kauai. Zoe and I were going back to our state: New Jersey. We took a flight back to New Jersey. We landed in Newton, New Jersey. A taxi then picked us up. It took a long time for each of us to reach our houses. Once I reached my house, I rang the doorbell several times. My parents opened the door. I hugged them and thanked them for planning the surprise trip to Hawaii, Oahu, and Kauai. They answered, \u201cYou\u2019re welcome!\u201d<\/p>\n I had the best time in the three islands: Hawaii, Oahu, and Kauai!<\/p>\n By Kruti Patel<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" My parents surprised me by putting my best friend, Zoe, and me on a plane to go to Hawaii!
