The clouds in Hawaii are so much fluffier...this is from the window of the plane.
Pretty view.
The beach that South Pacific was filmed on back in the olden days :) Sorry people of that generation ;)
Waimea falls...the Fantasy Island falls!
One of Hawaii's beautiful rainbows. You can see MANY each day!
View from the Canyon known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific.
It was COLD up there!
The ride up here made me sooooooo wanna puke!
Arizona Memorial...we wern't aloud to take pix of the outside of the monument because apparently they had SUPER SECRET MILITARY STUFF going on ;)
John and the anchor.
Bananas at the pineapple plantation...go figure!
Rabbit Island...this was always and enigma to Staci and I because we though it looke rather like a turtle.
Near the Blow Hole
View of Waikiki from the top of Diamond Head
We're still breathing after the hike up...barely :)
John on the 99 steps.
Going down was MUCH easier than up!
Kukui the bird at the hotel...he loved to be petted.
Not MY kids...heeheehee! (Oh and the Koi fish that act like dogs at feeding time)
REALLY sunburned at the luau!
Our new friends, and my partner in crime at the pool...Conrad and Lisa
Whoa-is-me...I'm having withdrawl symptoms. I haven't had my lounge chair beside the pool in Kauai for 5 days now. That along without my daily 5 (at least) Lava Flows (yummy) and a great book I'm hurtin' bad! I am REALLY tan though :) John and I had a GREAT time in Hawaii! We stayed at the Marriott in Lihue, Kauai. On Sunday we rented a convertable and drove the island sight seeing. Monday we took an island hopper and went over to Oahu. We hit all the sights that I really wanted John to see...Pearl Harbor, Dole Pineapple Plantation, the blow hole, Pali Lookout, and we ended the day with a hike up Diamond Head (it was MUCH easier when I was a kid)! We flew back to Kauai that night and the rest woould be pretty boring for you...not me...but you ;) I literally spent 5 days lounging at the pool..the beach...the pool from about 8:30 am to about 4pm, drinking Lava Flows, showering and eating! Cool huh? We had a wonderful time and I miss my vacation! Nana and Papa did a bang up job on holding down the fort here with all 4 kids...LOVE YOU!
