Carrie just posted a blog about her time in Hawaii filming Soul Surfer. She didn’t write TOO much, but had an unfortunate incident while shopping in Hawaii:

Just got back to the mainland from Hawaii and boy, did I have a great time!?! lol! Shooting for the movie was such a great experience! Bethany’s family and friends were there every step of the way to make sure we were inspired and got everything right. I had to be taught how to hold a surfboard…lol! What a wonderful project to be a part of! I couldn’t hope for a better movie and a better story to be a part of for my first movie! Everyone in and around the Hamilton family is so strong and so amazing! I am amazed and blessed to have gotten to know them! While in Hawaii, there wasn’t much time to sightsee, but we did get to wander around on Sunday. I did a little shopping, but managed to leave my bag in a restroom and when I went back about 10 minutes later to get it, the bag was there but the items were gone. I even found a hat that made me think of Miranda Lambert that I bought that was stolen! Sorry Miranda! It was super cute, too! Darn dishonest people! I know that I would’ve turned the bag in! We looked for the hat all day on people around us! It became a fun game! Of course, I don’t know what I would’ve said to anyone I saw wearing it…oh well, it’s my fault for leaving the goodies behind!
I’m assuming when she says she left her BAG in the restroom, it was her SHOPPING bag, not her purse. Now WHERE was she shopping…? My guess would be Ala Moana. At least she got to do a little extracurricular activity. Doesn’t sound like they got to do much sightseeing at all tho. Oh well, maybe she’s be inclined to come back (for fun) at some point (altho I hope her bag incident didn’t “scare” her off!)…
