Day 2 at the Google I/O Conference started earlier. When I got to the keynote, there were Lego all over the chairs. Could this be our next surprise? I do love Lego, but I can’t possibly love it more than this G2 phone. ;)
Then the announcement of Google Wave came! I’m sure Vic loves giving out all the great news. ;)
After the demo of Google Wave, I couldn’t wait to start using it! It’s like forums + email + IM + Google Docs + rsvp forms + all communication tools rolled into one! Very amazing! I think it’ll be a product that will revolutionize the internet.. Attendees of the conference will be getting accounts to test out the new product. I can’t wait!
After the Keynote, I was jumping in and out of sessions. There’s just so many that it’s hard to decide which to go to.
By 5pm, I felt really sad that Google I/O was over. But there’s always next year to look forward to!
Day 6.. My husband and I went searching for Paper Island because that was one of the places I wanted to go on our visit. Our wonderful GPS took us in circles all morning. We even ended up driving around Chinatown, and no scrapbook store in site. We eventually found the Honolulu store after making a few 360′s and wrong turns. It was a lot smaller than I imagined. After talking to the store manager, it turns out that this is their card and invitation location. The bigger store is actually in Waikiki (where I was at!) haha I had a great chat with the store manager though. Very friendly people. He even gave me a small tour of his store. Check out the clip.
Day 5.. We woke up early and headed to the North Shore side of Oahu. I heard the beaches on this side are amazing. On our way to the beaches, we saw a sign that said “Historical Town of Haleiwa.” So of course we stopped by! Lucky we did, because Matsumoto’s Shave Ice was on this street! It’s the famous dessert place showed on Rachel Ray’s $40 a Day and Unwrapped! We got the Large Matsumoto (rainbow and all flavors!) with ice Cream. Yummy! I suggest getting the one with the beans and ice cream. Heard that was really good also!
