I thought we could get off the bus at the malasada shop, but it was just a stop for the staff to pick up malasadas...
The lunch on the boat looked like they were grilling on board in the photos, but I couldn't tell if they were actually grilling or if it was pre-cooked; it just felt like they handed it to us sandwiched in bread.
I was really thrilled to see the dolphins, but I had high expectations for other aspects as well...
マラサダのお店でバス降りれるのかと思いきや、そこはただスタッフがマラサダを取りに停車するだけ・・・。
船上ランチ、写真では船上で焼いてくれてるイメージだったのに、焼いてたのか焼いてあったのかわからないが、パンにはさんで渡されただけって感じでした。
イルカを見れたのは、とっても感激しましたが、その他のところにも期待していただけに・・・。

In the past few years, I've been to Hawaii, but this was my first time participating in Dolphin University. In the first hour, I encountered a group of about 20 dolphin instructors, which was incomparable to any dolphin watching experiences I've had before. In the second hour, while I was mesmerized by a sea turtle instructor swimming leisurely on the ocean floor, another sea turtle instructor passed right in front of me!
My wife, who noticed the approaching turtle first, later told me that she panicked and said, "I heard there's a $3,000 fine for touching a sea turtle, but how much is the fine if we bump into one?" We had a good laugh about it afterward. I would love to enroll again next time, and after that, I want to go to Manta University as well. However, I do feel a bit anxious about whether I can have an experience as moving as this one again; it was such a luxurious experience.
ここ数年、ハワイに行っていますが、初めてイルカ大学に参加。1時間目、今まで参加したイルカウォッチングとは比較にならない団体、20頭位?のイルカ先生に遭遇。2時間目は、海底をゆったり泳ぐウミガメ先生に見とれていたら、、、超目の前を別のウミガメ先生が通過!
接近してくる先生に先に気づいた家内は「ウミガメに触ったら、罰金3000ドルって聞いてたけど、ぶつかったら、罰金は幾ら?」と大慌てになったと、後で聞いて大笑いしました。また次回も入学したいですし、その後はマンタ大学にも行きたいですね。でも、今回以上の感動が得られるのか、、、ちょっと不安も感じるくらい贅沢な体験でした。

I visited on a weekday. There was no waiting time, and it was quite empty. There are enjoyable slides, but overall it feels more geared towards children. I would recommend it for those who have leisure time during a long stay.
平日に行ってきました。
待ち時間もなくガラガラの状態。
楽しめるスライダーもあるが、全体的にお子様向きという感じ。

"We enjoyed the thrilling water slide! / Summer limited plan! Standard / With shuttle service" - we participated as a family of four with our high school and middle school kids.
At first, we only planned to buy tickets, but we found a limited plan that allowed us to enter an hour early, and we decided to join without hesitation, which turned out to be a great decision! We secured our chairs before it got crowded, and since we had researched strategies in advance, we started with the moving slide! The wait times were only about 5 to 10 minutes for everything, and it was truly fun. However, the lazy river only had one spot with strong currents, so it didn't flow very well, and one round was enough.
We also opted for the drink package, but we had to order at the food corner, which was always crowded regardless of the time. Waiting in line for a single drink felt like a waste of time, so I thought it might have been better not to include it.
Additionally, there were over ten buses parked at the lot when we were leaving, and we were confused about which one to take. In the crowd, we found a Japanese staff member and confirmed that the number written on the wristband we received during the morning pickup indicated the bus number. Perhaps there was an announcement in the video guide, but I wish they had informed us about it when we received the wristbands.
When we go to Hawaii again, we will definitely come back!
「絶叫ウォータースライダーを楽しもう! / 夏限定プラン!スタンダード / 送迎付き 」に高校生と中学生の子供達と家族4人で参加しました。
初めは チケットのみ購入するつもりでしたが、1時間早く入場できる限定プランをみつけ 迷わず参加しましたが これが大正解!!
込み合う前に チェアーの場所をゲットし 事前に攻略法で調べておいたので 動いているスライダーからチャレンジしました! 待ち時間もどれも5分~10分ぐらいで 本当に楽しかったです。 ただ 流れるプールは 1箇所ぐらいだけ水流が強いだけなので なかなか流れないプールで 1周で充分でした。 また ドリンク付きにしましたが フードコーナーでオーダーしなければならず ここは、時間に関係なく常に混んでいて ドリンク1杯で並ぶのが時間がもったいなく 付けなくっても良かったかなーと思いました。 また、 帰りのバスは駐車場に10台以上停まっていて どれに乗っていいのか困ってしまいました。人ごみの中で 日本語のスタッフを見つけ 確認をしたところ 朝 ピックアップの時に付けてもらったリストバンドに数字が書いてあり それが バスの番号でした。 もしかしたら ビデオ案内の中でお知らせがあったのかもしれませんが 装着の時に 一言 知らせてくれたら良かったのにと思います。
また ハワイに行った時には 絶対 行きます!

We participated in this tour as a family of five. We were able to enter an hour earlier than general admission, which allowed us to experience popular attractions first. The kids were thrilled, screaming with joy as they played. There were attractions that we can't experience in Japan, and while waiting in line, we were excitedly wondering what the next one would be. We enjoyed the same attractions multiple times and tried everything. At the end, we relaxed in the pool and the wave pool, talking about how we want to come back again. Time flies when you're having fun, and before we knew it, it was already time to go home. Since our bus was scheduled for just after three, I think it would have been even better if we could have played a little longer. But if we come to Hawaii again, we definitely want to visit here. Thank you for the wonderful time!
今回このツア-に家族5人で参加させて貰いました。一般入場より一時間早く入場出来込みそうなアトラクションを先に体験出来て子供もキャ-キャ-言って絶叫しながら喜んで遊んでいました。日本では体験できないアトラクションもあり次はどんなんだろうと順番を並びながらドキドキしもって楽しそうに待っていました。何度も同じアトラクションも体感し全部回りました。最後に回るプ-ルと波の出るプ-ルでゆったり浮かびながらみんなで又来たいねって話していました。楽しい時間って早いもので気が付くともう帰る時間でした。バスの時間が三時過ぎだったのでもう少し遅くまで遊べればもっと最高だったと思います。でも又ハワイに来たら絶対ここに来たいと思います。楽しい時間をありがとうございました

This was my friend's first time to do SNUBA. The instructor named Cameron did an incredible job in encouraging and supporting her through out the entire SNUBA portion of this excursion. She dived about 15 feet below the surface and now she wants to become certified diver because she CANNOT wait to get back down there!

Abbiamo fatto questa escursione durante il nostro viaggio di nozze ad Honolulu ed alloggiavamo all'Hilton Hawaiian Village.
L'escursione è stata nel complesso molto bella, ma il servizio navetta per portarti dall'hotel al porto dove partiva il catamarano è stato veramente scadente, all'andata non c'era posto per tutti e due ragazze si sono fatte 40 minuti di strada in piedi, al ritorno abbiamo aspettato circa 40 minuti perchè la navetta ha ritardato.
l'escursione invece è stata molto bella, abbiamo fatto 2 immersioni, abbiamo visto 3 tartarughe ma di delifini neanche l'ombra.
A bordo c'è un bel pranzo e i ragazzi sono gentilissimi e carinissimi!

I participated with my sister. The morning malasadas were delicious, and we encountered a lot of dolphins! It seems like we had the highest encounter rate recently, and we spotted several baby dolphins!

If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate! The staff were cheerful and it was enjoyable~!! Thank you! I'm so happy!

I participated alone, and on top of that, I was the only one without transportation, so I drove directly to the boat harbor, which made me quite anxious. The day before the tour, I called to confirm the details of the harbor, and since it was my first time driving overseas and there was a cancellation for the second shuttle, they kindly allowed me to switch from the first to the second shuttle, even though it was the day before!
The tour itself was great; unlike other tours where Japanese participants are often left to local guides partway through, the Japanese staff from Dolphin University stayed with us until the end, which was truly reassuring!
The local staff were super enthusiastic! I had so much fun!
Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any turtles, but I did see dolphins! It was moving!
ひとりでの参加。しかも、私だけ送迎なしで、ボートハーバーに直接車で行くと言うかなり、不安な参加でした。ツアー前日、ハーバーの詳細を確認の為、電話で確認していたら、初めて海外で運転している事や、第二便にキャンセルが出た事もあるので、第二便にしてゆっくり来てもいいですよと、前日にも関わらず、第一便から第二便に変更して下さいました!
ツアー自体も、他のツアーは途中まで日本人がいてもツアー自体は現地の人に丸投げだったりするのが、最後までイルカ大学の日本人スタッフが一緒にいてくれるので、本当に安心!
現地のスタッフ達も、超ノリノリ!
と〜っても楽しんじゃいました!
残念ながら亀には会えませんでしたが、イルカには会えました!

I attended with my fiancé, who is in his 30s, as we are about to get married soon.
The voucher instructed us to call Dolphin University as soon as we arrived in Hawaii, so I made the call. After being asked for our names, date, and where we made the reservation, we had to wait quite a while, which made me anxious about whether our reservation was actually confirmed.
However, we were indeed booked and were able to participate without any issues. Most of the participants seemed to be in their 20s. There was a lively announcement on the bus as well.
We were able to see dolphins, turtles, and tropical fish. In particular, we got to see the turtles and tropical fish quite closely. I brought a waterproof camera, but when it came time to see the dolphins, I felt a bit uneasy and went into the water without it. In hindsight, I wish I had taken some photos.
We were able to meet the dolphins and turtles without much swimming, but I got tired from the marine sports and ended up just watching. Even just watching was enjoyable.
The photos taken by a professional photographer were sold on DVD and CD-ROM for about $60, which included everyone from the tour. I considered purchasing just the well-taken photos of us, but since the price was somewhat high and there were strangers in the pictures, I decided against it. It would have been nice if they offered individual photo sales.
It was a day with very little wind, and we were able to meet the dolphins close to the shore, but there were some people who got seasick, so those who are prone to motion sickness might want to prepare accordingly. Also, even on sunny days with strong sunlight, when you get back on the boat after being in the water, the wind can feel cold, so I think women should either rent a wetsuit ($10) or bring something to cover up.
もうすぐ結婚式を迎える彼(ともに30代)と二人で参加しました。
ハワイについてすぐ、イルカ大学に電話するようにとバウチャーに書いてあったので電話をしたのですが、名前・日付・どこで予約をしたのか等を聞かれたあとに結構待たされ、本当に予約できているのか不安になる電話対応でした…。
実際には予約できていて、きちんと参加できました。
参加者は20代が中心のようでした。
バスの中でも軽快な案内がありました。
イルカもカメも熱帯魚も見ることができました。
特にカメと熱帯魚は、かなり近くで見ることができました。
防水カメラを持って行ったのですが、イルカを見るときには多少の不安もあって持たずに海へ入りました。しかし、やっぱり撮影しておけば良かったかな。
イルカにもカメにも、あまり泳がずに会うことができましたが、マリンスポーツは疲れてしまい、見ているだけになってしまいました。
見ているだけでも楽しかったです。
プロのカメラマンが撮影した写真は、DVDとCD-ROMでの販売で、ツアーで一緒になった人全員分込みで60ドルだったかな…。
よく撮れた自分たちの写真だけ、とかなら購入を検討したのですが、お値段もそこそこするし、見ず知らずの人が写っていても…ということで購入しませんでした。
個別の写真販売があったら良いのになぁ。
風もほとんどなく、岸から近い場所ですぐにイルカと会えた日だったのですが船酔いしている人もいたので、酔い止めが必要な人は用意した方がよいかもしれません。
また、晴れて日差しが強い日でも、海から上がって船が動くと風が冷たく感じるので、女性はウェットスーツ(10ドル)を借りるか、羽織るものを持って行った方がよいと思います。

There were many types of slides, but not all of them were operational. Depending on the time, some were available while others were not, and I didn't quite understand the system. The wave pool was also not always available, and after a long wait, we could only play for a short time after a group using bodyboards had priority. The food stall was quite crowded as well, and we had to wait a long time for the teriyaki burger to be ready. In the end, I even forgot to receive the bacon I ordered, which was frustrating.
The only saving grace was that my 8-year-old son enjoyed himself the entire time we were there, creating good memories for him. He especially loved the kids' slide and went down it over and over again with joy.
For those planning to visit, please note that the ground at the facility gets very hot, and my elderly father burned his toes. Beach sandals are essential for walking. Also, I think choosing a plan that includes bodyboarding in the wave pool would be much more enjoyable. The staff were mostly young and unfriendly, so just keep that in mind when participating in the tour. Additionally, even though we were supposed to enter an hour early, we had to wait over 30 minutes before the children's pool was available, which was unacceptable. It would have been better if there had been prior explanations.
スライダーの種類は多かったのに、全て稼働している訳ではなく、時間によって利用出来たり出来なかったり、システムが良く分かりませんでした。波の出るプールも常時利用出来る訳ではなく、かなり待たされた挙句、ボディボードの集団が優先的に利用した後に、短い時間でしか遊べませんでした。売店もかなりの混み具合で、ここでも照り焼きバーガーが出るまでにかなり待たされ、挙句の果てにオーダーしたベーコンをもらい忘れる羽目になり、散々でした。
唯一の救いは8歳の息子が、施設に入ってから退園するまでずっと楽しんでいたので、子供には良い思い出になったことです。特に、子供用のスライダーは大のお気に入りで、何回も何回も滑って喜んでいました。
これから利用される方に注意点として、施設の地面はかなりの熱さで同行した高齢の父は足の指をやけどしました。歩く時にはビーチサンダルが不可欠です。それから、波の出るプールはボディーボードを利用したプランを選んだ方が全然楽しめると思いました。施設のスタッフは若い人が多く、無愛想なのでそんなもんだと思ってツアーに参加して下さい。また、1時間早く入園出来たはずなのに、子供用のプールが利用出来るまでに30分以上待たされたのは、納得いきませんでした。事前の説明があればよかったのですが。

We participated as a couple with our 9-year-old daughter. We arrived at the venue around 9 AM and stayed until about 3 PM. Initially, I was worried about whether we could enjoy ourselves for six hours, but there were so many attractions, each with slightly different ways to enjoy them, that both our daughter and the adults had plenty of fun. The only downside was that the Shaka was closed. We chose the standard plan, which did not include meals or free drinks, but it was not a problem; in fact, this plan is cheaper, and I would recommend the standard plan. There are height restrictions for some attractions, so I would particularly recommend it for kids around the third grade.
夫婦、娘9歳と参加しました。
9時頃に現地到着、15時頃まで園内にいました。
当初は6時間も遊べるものかと心配しましたが、アトラクションの数が多く、それぞれ楽しみ方が少しづつ異なるため、娘はもちろん大人も十分に楽しめました。
唯一、シャカがクローズされていたのは残念。
食事・フリードリンク共に無しのスタンダードプランでしたが、特に問題ありませんでしたというか、こちらのプランの方が安いですし、スタンダードプランがお勧めです。
アトラクションにより、身長制限がありますので、小3くらいからが、特にお勧めですかね。

We went as a family of four with our 4-year-old and 9-year-old children. Since the 4-year-old couldn't really use the slides, we split into two groups to enjoy ourselves. The 4-year-old had plenty of fun in the children's pool and the wave pool, while the 9-year-old had a blast on the slides!
When waiting in line for the slides, you have to go barefoot, but the ground was so hot that it felt like a mild burn... I really hope they can do something about that.
Also, for your reference...
- I think it's best to store valuables in a locker, but you can leave your change of clothes and towels on the chairs around the pool.
- It might be a good idea to separate those waiting for lockers from those securing chairs when entering.
4歳、9歳の子どもをつれて家族4人で行きました。
4歳はスライダーは殆ど出来ませんので、2組に分かれて楽しみました。
4歳も子ども用プールや波のプールで十分楽しめましたし、9歳の子どもはスライダーで楽しみまくりました!
スライダーに並ぶ際は裸足になるのですが、地面が熱すぎて軽いやけど状態になるほど、、。これは何とかしてもらいたいと思いました。
あと、ご参考までに・・・
・貴重品はロッカーにしまうのが良いと思いますが、着替えやタオルなどはプール周りの椅子などに置いても良いと思います。
・入場時に、ロッカーに並ぶ人と椅子を確保する人と分けるといいと思います。

It was my first trip to Hawaii. I booked a tour with transportation included through alan1.net. The shuttle bus was shared with others who had booked different tours. Our tour included (1) the shuttle bus and (2) admission passes. (You have to wait for availability for the floaties in the lazy river.)
After entering, we rented a locker (which can be accessed freely). There are large and small sizes, both of which are tall and narrow. For reference, a large locker can fit a tote bag and three pairs of sandals if packed well for a family of three. I believe the price was around $17 for the large locker, including a $5 deposit (which is refunded later with a receipt).
The pool opened at 10:30 AM. Among the many attractions suitable for adults, the highlight was the Tornado. We rode it multiple times as a family. Just before entering the funnel-like section, there’s a very steep drop that gives a pleasant feeling of weightlessness. Another fun ride was the Flying Hawaiian. When you launch off the slide, the drop to the water surface is quite high, and if you're heavier, the splash when you hit the water is impressive.
As for the shuttle bus, it departed from in front of the Hyatt at 9:30 AM and arrived on-site around 10:00 AM. For the return trip, we gathered on-site at 3:15 PM and arrived back at the Hyatt around 4:20 PM. The bus number for the return trip is assigned during the outbound journey, but it is confirmed again on-site based on the number of people returning. The staff will adjust accordingly, so you just need to wait patiently for the results.
初めてのハワイ旅行でした。alan1.netにて送迎つきツアーを申し込みました。送迎バスは他ツアーなどで申し込んだ方と同じバスでした。私たちのツアーでは、(1)送迎バス、(2)入場パスが含まれていました。(流れるプールの浮き輪は、空きを待たないといけない。)
入場後、ロッカー(出し入れ自由)を借ります。ロッカーは大・小サイズがあり、どちらも縦長な形。大だと家族3人の荷物の参考で、トートバッグ×1+サンダル3足が、うまく押し込めば入ると思います。
値段は、大で保証金5ドル(後からレシート提示で戻ってくる)を含めて17ドルだったように思います。
プールは、10:30amにオープンしました。
スライダーなど、大人も楽しめるレベルのものがたくさんある中、一番だったのがトルネード。家族3人で何度も乗りました。ラッパ(?)みたいな場所に入る直前にとても急なところをすべり降り浮遊感が心地よかったです。
他には、フライング・ハワイアンってのが面白かったです。スライドから飛び出したら、水面までが結構な高さで、ドボンと落ちます。体重ある方なら、落ちたときの水のはね方が、すごい感じになりますよ。
それから、送迎バスは、(行き)ハイアット前9:30am出発で10:00ごろ現地着、(帰り)現地15:15集合で16:20頃ハイアット着でした。帰りのバスの号車は、行きの時点で指示されますが、その号車が決まるのは帰りの人数を現地で再確認した後。係りの方が現場で調整してくれるので、その結果を焦らず待つことになります。

We were able to enter an hour earlier than other options, so we enjoyed our favorite attractions before it got crowded. We especially loved the Tornado and rode it five times together as a family.
There is a similar facility called "Tarsan" in Guam, but W&W is larger in scale, allowing us to play all day long.
I wanted to capture footage from my perspective, so I wore a GO-PRO on my head while riding. After returning from the trip, I was able to "experience" various attractions at home by watching the footage.
他のオプショナルより1時間早く入場できるので、込み合う前にお目当てのアトラクションを満喫できました。特にトルネードにはまり、家族一緒に5回も滑りました。
グアムにも「ターザ」という似たような施設がありますが、W&Wのほうが規模が大きく、1日中思いっきり遊ぶことができました。
自分目線の映像を撮りたくて頭にGO-PROを付けて滑りましたが、旅行から帰って映像を見ることで、自宅でもいろんなアトラクションをを「体験」できました。

I participated in a course that included pick-up service. The sightseeing bus picked up participants from various hotels and arrived almost on time. Although it wasn't an early entry day, the participants of this tour were allowed to enter a little earlier than the scheduled time, so we could rent lockers without waiting in line and be the first to enjoy the slides, making effective use of our time. I would like to participate again when I go to Hawaii.
送迎付きのコースに参加しました。観光バスでいろいろなホテルを回って参加者を拾っていきます。ほぼ時間通りに迎えにきてくれました。その日はアーリー入場の日ではなかったのですが、このツアー参加者は入場開始時間より気持ち早めに入場できたので、ロッカーを借りるのに並ばず、スライダーにも一番乗りで参加できたので時間を有効に使えました。またハワイに行くときには参加したいです。

I applied because I was told I could enter an hour early. Only one attraction was open, but since it was not crowded, I was able to ride it three times. Last year I had the deluxe plan, and this year I didn't add anything, but since the cost of lunch and drinks was not much different from the deluxe plan, I think I will apply for the deluxe plan next time.
1時間早く入れるとの事で申し込みました。アトラクションは1個だけしかオープンしていませんでしたが、空いていたので3回も乗れました。
去年はデラックスプランで、今年は何もつけなかったのですが、ランチやドリンクを買うとデラックスプランとたいして料金が変わらなかったので次回からはデラクスプランで申し込もうと思います。

My two sons, aged 10 and 7, were playing happily. It's great that the wait times aren't as long as in Japan. There are also many rides, so we enjoyed the whole day.
10歳と7歳の息子二人は大喜びで遊んでました。日本のように待ち時間が長くないのがいいですね。乗り物の数も多いので一日楽しめました。

I had a great time with the activities, shows, and lures. Unlike the large lure shows, this one had a cozy atmosphere where the stage and audience were integrated, making for a really enjoyable experience. The host was a wonderful entertainer, which was fantastic! I highly recommend it!!
アクティビティ、ショー、ルアーととても楽しむことができました。大箱のルアーショーとは違い、アットホームで、舞台と観客席が一体になって、といぇも楽しい時間を過ごせました。司会の方がとても素敵なエンターテナーでそれもサイコでした!オススメです!!

"We participated as a family of four in 'Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii - Let's Enjoy the Thrilling Water Slides!' On the day of the event, it was unfortunately raining in the Waikiki area, but we made our way to the Hyatt Regency Hotel for the 8:25 meeting time. The tour bus departed for 'Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii' about 30 minutes later than scheduled. During the ride, they played a DVD explaining the park, and the bus driver provided detailed explanations in English while we were on the H1 Highway. After about a 30-minute drive, we arrived at 'Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii.' The weather here was clear, which was a stark contrast to the rain in Waikiki, so our spirits lifted and everyone was excited. We had the benefit of entering the park an hour early, so we were able to enter ahead of the general admission guests. We quickly rented a locker to lighten our load and had a blast. Before we knew it, it was lunchtime. Since it was a weekday, purchasing lunch went smoothly. The last time we visited was on a Sunday, and there were long lines for lunch then. Unfortunately, many attractions were closed in the afternoon, but we still had a great time until our meeting time for the return to Waikiki at 15:15. On the way back, we checked the bus number written on our strap before boarding, and we arrived in Waikiki around 16:15.
Overall, I felt it was a great deal with the 'park admission + round-trip transportation' and the one-hour early entry benefit."
「ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ 絶叫ウォータースライダーを楽しもう!」に家族4名で参加してきました。当日ワイキキ・エリアはあいにくの雨で若干テンション下げながらも8:25集合場所のハイアット・リージェンシーホテルに向かいました。予定よりも約30分遅れてツアーバスは「ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ」に出発しました。車内ではDVDによるパークの説明を流し、H1 HI WAY走行中はバス・ドライバーが丁寧に英語で説明をしてくれました。所要時間30分くらいで「ウェット・アンド・ワイルド・ハワイ」に到着。ワイキキの雨が嘘のようにこちらは快晴でしたのでテンションは上昇し皆ワクワク。今回は1時間早めに入場できる特典付きでしたので、一般入場者を横目に優先でパークに入れました。早速、レンタル・ロッカーを借用し身軽になって遊びまくりました。あっと言う間にランチタイム。平日なので、ランチ購入もスムーズにできました。前回来場した時は日曜日だったので、ランチ購入も長蛇の列ができていましたが…。午後からは休止しているアトラクションが多く残念でしたが、ワイキキ戻りの集合時間15:15まで楽しく遊べました。帰りはストラップに記入されたバス番号を確認して乗車し、ワイキキ到着は16:15くらいでした。
感想は「パーク入場+往復送迎付き」1時間早入場特典付きでしたので "お得"でした。

The park isn't very large, but it's packed with slides! Perhaps because it was a weekday or due to fewer employees, some slides were not operating. They change based on the time. Just when I thought one was running, it would stop, and another that had been off would start... Still, the kids were riding all over the place. We added a free drink option, and that was a great decision! I thought I would only have three cups, but I ended up using it all the way until we left! I heard a storm was approaching, but under the blue sky, I got quite sunburned. I was surprised to hear that it was raining on and off in Waikiki. I felt lucky to have escaped the rain.
園内はそんなに広くないですがスライダーが満載!!
平日だったからか従業員が少ないのか停止しているスライダーがありました。
時間でかわっていくんです。
さっきまでやっていたと思ったら止まり、やってなかったところが動きだし・・・
それでも子供はあっちこっちと乗りまくり。
フリードリンクをつけたのですがこれは大正解!!
3杯飲んだら素がとれると思って頼んだのですが帰りまでしっかり使わせていただきました!
ストームが近づいているといわれていたのですが青空のもと日焼けしまくりでした。
ワイキキのほうは一日降ったりやんだりだったと聞いてびっくりです。
雨から逃げた感じでラッキーでした。
