12 Days of Christmas: Princess Kaiulani Gingerbread Village

Every year since we got here, I've read of a fantastic holiday gingerbread display in Waikiki. We finally made it! This afternoon after lunch with my in-laws, we walked over to the Sheraton Princess Kaiulani Hotel to check it out. I was expecting it to smell better (no gingerbread/spice smell at all) but otherwise it was magic. The pastry chef is German and he models the scene on a classic European winter village. Two trains, tunnels and overpasses, ice skaters...it was all there. Even a working gondola! The boys loved the trains, of course, but we all felt like kids while looking at it.
