It’s one of those things that I’m glad I did, but probably would never do again. Right now the stairs are “officially” closed, but when we go back I swear I always see somebody on there. Hopefully they’ll open them up again to the public.

If/when you go to Hawaii let me know… I can send you a list of fun things to do and yummy places to eat.

It took several hours. It was like getting on a nightmare stair master from hell, but the view was AMAZING. The stairs are located in my in-laws neighborhood in Hawaii, and my father-in-law made it seem like climbing them would be totally easy, so El Hub and I (we were both in great shape at the time) went in thinking that it would be a snap. We barely ate breakfast that morning, and only had like two bottles of water and some oreo cookies to eat. At some points when you’re climbing you’re literally going vertically and holding onto ropes. It’s really scary! You can read more about them here:

No I haven’t tried the Givenchy one, I tried the Gurlain les deux and wasn’t particularly impressed so im kinda off trying new mascaras at the moment! I did get a nice little package from Chanel today though, they sent me the new Coco mml twist and spray eau de parfum and a tube of Exceptionnel – I do love my job haha!
