Periscope. Scope Day.

hello friends...it's been a while. things have been hectic around here as our office is relocating, but i wanted to drop in and say, I MISS YOU ALL! how have you been...what's new? tell me in the comments!

a while back, kim, at a very sweet blog, introduced us to periscope. the app lets you broadcast live from your phone to the world enabling others to 'see the world through your eyes'.

Around the World in a Day

Saturday, November 7, 2015

6 continents | 62 broadcasters | 43 cities

on saturday, november 7th, i will be part of Scope Day, the brain child of Mike Lin. it is a collaboration of 62 broadcasters (including 12 musicians) around the globe who will be showing you attractions and landmarks from their cities in a pass-the-cast format. the event kicks off at 5:15 am PST in cairo, egypt and ends 16 hours later in new york. each broadcaster gets 15 minutes before passing their viewers on to the next broadcaster waiting in the wings.

i will be broadcasting live from hawaii at 3:45pm local time (5:45pm PST).

the 12 musicians will be covering taylor swift songs in hopes of convincing her to broadcast live for the very first time on periscope (we have saved her a time slot).

ever wanted to see the pyramids in egypt? the french alps in france? the tallest building in hong kong? and more and more from africa, ireland, japan to name a few? best of all? this trip is free.

hope to see you there.

peek a boo lace.

comfort is key around here. i'm wearing my favorite black cardigan and these comfy shorts from Patty's Closet. black is so effortless...just incorporate texture and details as with these gauzy shorts with lace trim.

i spent the weekend on kauai. it was a quick trip for mini-she's volleyball, but we managed to squeeze in some sight-seeing and a lot of eating. part one of kauai pics below.

how was your weekend? did you travel this summer?

on the plane: always look forward to reading hana hou!

first stop: po's kitchen for breakfast bento boxes on the go.

we headed straight to waimea canyon...did you catch it on periscope?

water was flowing down the red dirt hills.

drove thru hanapepe for ono taro chips before heading to the hotel.

weekend in photos. staycationing.

we had a quick overnighter in waikiki this past weekend...a last hoopla before the minis started summer school. it started with a family day/graduation party at ala moana beach where we ate and swam, played cards, rode scooters around the park, and walked on the rocks. then we checked into the hotel and ate

and swam some more.

unfortunately, i grabbed my camera but not my battery that was charging in the outlet. so the weekend was photo-documented

with my iphone.

  

we got here bright and early to set up camp and get parking.

by mid-morning, we were hungry so burgers went on the grill.

still recovering from last week's sunburn,

i took cover when i could!

tried to get jump shots with diamond head in the background.

obviously this one was a #fail.

stocked up on a couple tanks for the weekend,

got the hat below free with purchase.

it was perfect for keeping the sun out of my face.

check-in!

first stop? pool.

evening panorama from the balcony, 24th floor, #nofilter.

a couple friends came by for drinks on the balcony.

have no idea where this shot came from...possibly a failed panoramic, but it's pretty cool.

and the morning view.

refueled with a hearty breakfast before our last swim at the pool.

 mini-she & friend.

 checked out of the hotel and headed to the beach

for some standup paddling.

this would have been a great panoramic shot if it weren't for

the tent in the middle of the beach!

we had a wild time...

...but all good things must come to an end.

neoprene + zippers.

i took a quick trip to kona on monday for work.

after my work was done, i stopped at the shopping center for lunch and a quick look-around. not much in terms of shopping...only a ross and jeans warehouse, but i did find this skirt which turned out to be quite awesome for its $10 price tag. the front is thick like neoprene, so it fits like a glove and keeps its shape,

and it doesn't ride up at the waist like i expected.

here's what i can tell you about kona:

1) the airport is old school (which i love), no fancy buildings or enclosed jetways. you walk right onto the tarmac and up a ramp.

2) the obvious...it's hot and voggy, but nice wide-open spaces.

3) they've gone green. the cashier asked me if i wanted to buy a bag. i said no, not thinking about what she meant. then she handed my items directly to me...to put in my own bag. ok, got it!

the good: they are going green

the bad: hard to keep track of your items. either one of the shirts i bought fell out of my bag, or she didn't give

it to me at all. kinda bummed.

driving along the main highway, this is what you see... 

my purchases stuffed in my own bag...#gogreen.
