You , two are so cute and hilarious 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😊!
“You’re on a hot Mike” you two are so hysterical. Love your channel. Glad you’re back on Hawaii. I need to get back there someday! ❤❤
Great video once again Bill and Lisa❤
Duke statue behind you, nice. I have been by there so many times. ABC stores are great. L&L I love!

You guys are such fun! I love Waikiki. Yes, it's a tourist trap, but it's so much fun playing tourists once in awhile. We stay close to the center and walk all the way to Ala Moana on some days. With parking at $30 a day, forget renting a car! Everything you need is within walking distance.

@@holyshnikees1684 Actually, we do need visitors right now. I live on Maui and tourism supports our economy. The west side (Lahaina) is closed and visitors should respect that by not going on that side. However, the rest of Maui is open for business and hurting for tourists right now. Especially Kihei and Wailea, which are very dependent on tourism.

My personal opinion. The luau is very expensive. You could do it once to try it out. To me the food should/could be better quality for what you pay. No matter what you do in Hawaii it’s going to be beautiful just hopefully not so expensive.

For the luau the dress seems to be casual compared to what it was back in old days (1970’s) when I was there. Wondering if they cooked a buried pig where you could see it or has that also been done away with. Not sure of correct name of buried cooked pig but remember it was delicious. Enjoyed the video.

Hi Inge! There's a shave ice place in LA, Ululani Shave Ice. Maui based company.
Thank you for your great videos as always. My husband and I watch you religiously. We did the same exact luau you guys did two years ago on our honeymoon and had such a horrible experience. They served us spoiled food. It was us and another table that got food with mold on it. We complained and they didn't do anything about it except offered us more food. We were disgusted by this. When we saw your video we had to look away! Not your fault but I'm glad it was a great experience for you.
