Today is our last full day on the island... I was going to work on pictures (there are definitely a few more for the gallery) but instead I am just going to soak in the last of the lovely island weather and feelings before we have to pack up and head home. Unlike some vacations I've been on, I always find it difficult to leave Hawaii. There is something undefinably special about this place.
And it's been such a great trip... canyon hikes, beach strolls, dramatic sunsets, snorkeling that included several up-close interludes with some wonderful green sea turtles, some excellent Mai Tais in Po'ipu, out door showers, beautiful gardens and natural spaces, incredible surf, and a doors-off helicopter ride that put the whole island in perspective.
Would I come back to Kauai again?
In a heartbeat.
Would that I didn't have to have a job and that I could travel anywhere when I wanted to.
Even then, I am sure I would find myself spending much time on the Hawaiian Islands.
The next post will likely be in a couple of days when I am back in Chicago. Dealing with much less hospitable weather. Until then, Aloha!
P.S. I seem to be having some email problems right at the moment, so if you left me a comment or sent me some other email to one of my keyboardbiologist.net accounts, I probably won't be able to answer until I get back to Chicago. Not sure why I am having this problem, probably some strange quirk of the internet that will repair itself when I get back into my home territory.
I have loved reading through each of your vacation posts. We are going to Kauai in December so it has been a wonderful "preview".
Thanks so much for sharing your photos.
Well, for your sake I should say, don't hurry home? Thanks for the grand tour & sharing your awesome vacation! Can't wait to see pics!
I went to Oahu and Kaui in September. I did snorkel 3 times on Kaui but was a bit disappointed that I only saw little fishes. The waves are pretty strong so the water was quite blurred. I remember I went to Anini beach, Poipu and also Lydgate. Apart from that I did go to Walmart to get some Peaches n Cream that we do not have in Hong Kong
