Hubby Time Part One Kauai

Bright and early, the day after Sierra’s graduation, David and I flew out on a trip of our own. David had won a trip to Hawaii. We had been to Hawaii before but we had only been on the island, Oahu.  This trip was to the Big Island. We decided to extend our trip and spend a few days in Kauai, before heading to the Big Island.  I love getting away with my husband and Hubby time is great.

 When we arrived it was dark and we had had a long travel day.  The next morning we awoke to this beautiful Hawaiian Island.  We had rented a car and stayed at a condo on the beach.  After exploring our area and running to buy groceries we took a lovely drive.  We drove up the canyon and saw some amazing sights on the west side of the island, then went to a beach and played in the water for a bit, then back to our town for a lovely dinner and watched the sun set.

 The following day we explored the north and west part of the island.  These silly chickens are all over the island and the locals do not appreciate them at all.  One thing I really enjoy is checking out waterfalls which we saw several. Another thing I really enjoy is light houses and we found one of those. The day was wonderful!

Our last day on Kauai, we just relaxed.  In the morning we went for a long walk on the beach and spent the rest of the day on the beach resting and snorkeling.  It was so exciting to see a big turtle just lying on the beach.  As we were walking by someone said look at that big turtle.  I started walking out toward the beach and it was lying right in front of me.  It totally blended in with the rocks and I would have walked right past it.  I also love snorkeling in the water.  The day was a bit breezy, but when I am snorkeling I don't even notice.
