My name is Abbie and I am a full time registered nurse. My husband is William, but you can call him Wiebe like the rest of us do! Wiebe is an electrical engineer and does computer programming full time. Wiebe and I love to travel and we make it a priority to do it as much as we can. When choosing where to go I always want it to involve nature in some way. It renews my soul to be reminded of how insignificant I am in the grand scheme of things. Surrounded by the open ocean, a dense forest, or standing on top of a mountain or open field, to me, is almost spiritual. I need those moments in my life. It helps to put things into perspective. Starting this channel is our way of sharing our experiences with you and maybe helping to spark inspiration for your own adventures!
@reloadedjulio yes! We actually had another couple staying at Conrad on this excursion and the bus picks up and drops off right at the hotel’s front door 😊
@rhysaminez572 we were there from 8am until 4:30pm that day. It’s really up to you as to how much time you want to spend. We didn’t read or study every single exhibit but we also didn’t rush through them and it took us all day. I really don’t think you’ll be able to see them all if you go less than a full day, you’ll have to prioritize what you want to see at that point.
One more side note: the jewelry stand with the pearls will first show you the $300 14K gold pendants for you to buy. I told the sales lady I prefer sterling silver. She then pulled out the sterling silver pendants which were $85-$95. The chains are sold separately. We decided to get our daughter and myself each a pearl, a pendant, and a chain. The sales lady gave us a sterling silver plumeria pendant free of charge since we bought the 2 other pendants. So, make sure to work a deal with them so you get a free pendant if you buy more than one. 😆
Side note: the tour on the USS Missouri is 30 minutes or so long. They walk you to the front of the ship and discuss the different artillery on board and other facts. They then walk you to the area where the Instrument of Surrender was signed to end the war with Japan. They discuss a few individuals who were in attendance and a little about their back story. Then, they walk you to where the kamikaze pilot hit the USS Missouri and explain what happened before, during, and after the crash. After that, you are free to explore the rest of the ship on your own. If you are not in a big hurry, I recommend the tour.
@@AbbieandWiebe oh of course! My hubby and I stumbled on your videos just now and we are literally binge watching because you two are just great! You both were just meant to be! Keep doing your videos. Your smiles make us smile too! Thank you. Wish there were more people like you all in this world. God bless. 🙂
Awww!! That has made my day!! I love to hear you are binge watching!! Just a warning, our first several are pretty cringy 🤣😜! Thank you for the support and encouragement! We appreciate it more than you know 🥰❤️
Oh yes we are going in September and I would love the info …we are staying at the military resort do you have any other good places you will let me know thank hou
Well we were only in Oahu for one day and only to see PH so we don’t really have any recommendations outside of that. But we are hoping to get our video out tomorrow about planning your day at PH! 🥰
Excellent tour 1st time ever seeing Pearl Harbour.thanks for your commentary.It does make one feel emotional about all those lives lost.they didn’t know what was going to happen.Sadly.many more lives were lost in the Pacific war .But thankfully USA was Victorious many countries saved from Jap rule even here in NZ they would conquered.GOD BLESS America.
You are welcome! Thank you for making this video. We are planning on going there and are wondering how much you actually have to pedal vs the motor power as we are bringing some family that have lower stamina. Thank you SO much! Have a great weekend!
@@tericoat it is VERY easy! Basically the electric motor does all the work, the pedaling is really just to charge the motor and there's very little friction so it feels like you're doing nothing. They also don't let you go very fast anyways, since you're all lined up behind each other so it's very leisurely! You all will have SOO much fun! ❤
I know that road, cycle up,there a lot during the better weather. The old Guinness estate and Lough Tay just behind on the right, down the hill turn right to Roundwood, on to Laragh and then Glendalough . Cycling, I would then take the right fork up over the Wicklow gap, down into Hollywood (it’s everywhere) in through Blessington, across the city and back out to Malahide where I live, that’s 150 km and 6 hours or more. By the way Lough Tay and the Guineas Estate is where U2 recorded one of their albums and where the series The Vikings was filmed , there you go…
