Plans for Camilla and Jonas


A couple of days ago I created a group on Facebook for events that I will host while Camilla and Jonas are here in Hawaii. It was aimed so that it would be easier for people to know what kind of events and activities was going down. This way we will always be a big group of people in everything we do - if we want a lot of people. If not, we just don't give out the information.

So far, what I've planned is the following:
- Sky diving

- Shark safari (Diving with sharks)
- Snorkling Hanauma Bay
- Surfing
- Hiking Manoa Falls and Diamondhead
- Camping at North Shore (Also see a Surf competition same weekend and check out Waimea beach)
- Visit the LOST beach
- Surfing
- BBQ



We will see how much of this there are actually time for, seen as I have exams and papers due during the time they are here. It is just a good way to have a big list. If you Aim at the top, you will hit closer than if you aim at the middle. So, why not set up everything, and then we will see what there are time to do.


Also, we will try to go out a lot and experience the Hawaiian nightlife. Both Camilla and Jonas deserves to see the best of Waikiki and O'ahu. I will bring my camera for the events, and probably borrow my roommates camera for the events that are for water (he got a waterproof camera) so we will be able to put up some awesome pictures!



Camilla and Jonas will also experience an American Thanksgiving to the fullest; we will be joining the same party as last year; Tommy Kekoa and his lovely family in Hawaii Kai. He was Patriks (one of my best friends in Hawaii) roommate last year. So it is going to be turkey and what not for the Nation and Kipperberg family this year!

Visits, School and Good times

As always, I'm having the time of my life and every day it just gets better, not consistently, but almost! So I truly say that I'm living life to the fullest at the moment and I don't think I've had such a great time as I can remember. But at the same time I also look forward to celebrating Christmas in Norway, and snowboard at Bjorli! It's going to be great.

Also, Camilla and Jonas is soon coming for a visit, which is going to be great. I talked to Camilla the other day, and I said what I've planned for when they come here, it will be some cool hiking's, nice beaches, bonfires and camping I guess would be the most memorable. And a great friend from Norway, Ingvild, who studied at HPU last semester is coming next week as well to visit us, which is going to be great, she promised to bring Stratos. Not that I really want one, but she asked me, and it was the only thing I could come up with :)

I'm now done with my midterms and coming up is some time off seen as I can't really move any of my toes, so I'm out of any sport. So I will try to do as much as possible now the upcoming weeks with Camilla and Jonas visiting it is a great opportunity for me to explore more of the Island as well.

Update coming when I got time, now I have to go.

Back to school again

So as the weekend is over, which means Halloween + Soccer tournament, I just want to add a couple of pictures from the tournament on Sunday. We had a lot of people attending, and also a lot of people just being there to be social. And everyone I've talked to so far had a GREAT time, so hopefully we will do it again soon - even though I think both of my big toes are sprained, or something like that. But I'm up and running soon enough.
