KAUAI.......ahhhh

This year for our Mommy/Daddy vacation, we went to Kauai. It was very different from Maui and we were having a hard time the first few days. First, we felt guilty for being able to go on a nice vacation when so many of our friends are struggling financially. It seemed to affect us more then we thought it would. Second, the weather was not real good for the first 3 days. It rained everyday, all day. We still did some fun things. After the sun came out and greeted us it allowed us to see the beauty of Kauai. That is when we finally relaxed!! The first day we just drove around and tried to see the different towns on Kauai but was soon lost. It got dark about 1 hr after being there. We both enjoyed massages that were amazing. Some of the other activities we did were.....snorkeling in many different areas, driving the island, zip lining through the jungle, hiking to waterfalls, nice dinners and most of all relaxing and loving being with each other. We had a blast once we let everything back home go.........it really is a beautiful island.




Our room was on the ground level with access to a small beach. This was the view outside our Lanai.


This was part of our beach



Our little friend that came to visit on 2 different days. Brandon took this picture to see if the kids would think he was really petting her. He was really standing about 5ft from her just below a shelf of sand.

This is part of the Grand Canyon in Kauai

Another view.....hee hee





Zip lining









Yep...i really did it. I cried on my first one.





We went on a zodiac boat tour to the Napali Coast. It was breathtaking. We encountered tons of dolphins on our way. They were jumping and playing all around us. We wanted to all jump in and swim with them.

Another view of the Napali coast. Sorry the sun was so bright. There were some amazing waterfalls. Our tour guides took us into Pirate caves with our boat and we were greeted with some amazing waterfalls falling onto us. SO FUN!!!!
