Today in Hawaii, we got an early start to go to Washington Place, where the last queen of Hawaii lived. We learned about how Queen Lili'uokalani decorated her household and kept to her Hawaiian traditions. We learned how all the governors lived in this house until this last one. Then we went to the capital and it was interesting because it was very open to the public. Then we went to the Iolani Palace, where the earlier kings and queens lived. The palace had lots of original furniture, and we learned about a lot of traditions about how they lived. We spent the second half of the day at the beach in Waikiki, and had fun riding the waves unsuccessfully. We ended the night with a great dinner at Bubba Gump.
