I loved everything about our trip. The pool at the hotel was the perfect temperature. The water at our beach was gentle enough to paddle board in (I even got up! Can you believe that?) but fun enough that it could knock us around close to shore. Kauai is so, so beautiful. (Except the west part of the island. No comment there.) Kayaking the Wailua river was so fun! Even when the boys were too fast to catch up to. Hiking through the mud was a little exhilarating and the secret falls were magical. I loved watching the girls and Husband jump from Hanalei Pier and when we were at Tunnels beach, the snorkeling was outstanding and we all saw a turtle. The lava cave was cool and Husband looked like a vampire. Keilea Beach had some great waves and Olympic Cafe had some yummy coconut syrup and a super delicious Pig Breakfast Burrito. The Napali Coast was breathtaking and the dolphins were spinning around in the air. Our little trip to the fern grotto featured the perfect around of Hawaiian music and dance. The hike in Waimea Canyon was hard for me, I don't know why, but it was beautiful. The dark chocolate covered macademia nuts were yummy. Our minivan was comfy. It hardly ever rained on us. The poo poo flowers were tasty. As I said, the beds were fabulous. I can't remember that last time I spent 10 hours in bed because my hips always hurt, and I normally just sleep 6-7 hours top.The food we ate was good, the company was the best. I loved this trip and I thank my Heavenly Father for blessing us so richly.
