kauai – our adventure to paradise

In February we explored the “garden isle” of Hawaii. It was beautiful. It was relaxing. It was our first epic family vacation. I am not going to lie, I was terrified of the flight – anticipating a full fledged shut down of Homeland Security as we tried to get our mega load of baby stuff through – but we made it. (although it did include a full pat down with Maggie strapped to my chest in the babybjorn – but that’s for another post).

Some unforgettable sites, sounds and flavors of Kauai:
– Rooster crows in the morning
– Sunrises over the north shore
– Watching Laird Hamilton get towed into 30+ waves in Hanalei Bay
– Mai tais at the St. Regis of Princeville
– Waves crashing on Tunnels Beach while watching Doug body surf
– The best ahi tacos I have ever tasted from island taco
– Holding my baby while watching the sunset, thinking life is beautiful.
– Long walk along the coast with my husband (perhaps our first date conversation since Mag’s was born)
– Laughs with Barbie while exploring the beach at Hanalei Bay
– Wonderment at the canyon views of Waimea

This trip was a milestone – we can do this travel thing as a family (we may need a little more help – thank you Barbie!) – but we are excited about the adventures to come. I loved Kauai and can’t wait to go back someday.
