.:Aloha:.


We had such an amazing & relaxing vacation in Hawaii 
Just us two 
{We missed Brynlie so much}
We are so glad we were able to go on this trip and spend some good, quality time with each other, making lots of fun memories
Probably one of the most restful vacations I will ever take  
{Aloha au ia 'oe}   {Ku'u-Ipo}      
.:Slideshow:.

.:The Beach:.
We had so much fun soakin' up the sun at the beach
I also had fun setting the timer on the camera and running out within ten seconds like a lifeguard on Baywatch. Hee hee.

.:Boogie Boarding:.




.:Road to Hana:.
We drove along 617 curves and 56 one-lane bridges {wow} through a rain forest.  It wasn't at all about the destination but more about what you see and find along the way.
.:Waterfalls:. 
 There were lots of pretty waterfalls and we even found one we could jump off of
This is me mid-jump, it was scary! I am so glad I did it though!  It was such an exhilarating experience.
Now we can officially say that we have jumped off of a waterfall in Hawaii 
This is Jeff, he actually did it twice.  Once was enough for me!
It was about 25 feet, but it seemed higher from the top
These were look out points along the way.  
It was such a beautiful drive
.:Black Sand Beach:.
On the Road to Hana, we also found this really cool beach that had black sand  
While we were there we found this cave
We thought about getting in the ocean, but after reading these warning signs we decided against it.
.:Poolside:.
We loved ordering lunch while laying out at the pool

Hot Tubbin'
.:Snorkeling:.
Jeff seems to be fearless when it comes to scuba diving & snorkeling.  I on the other hand, am a little claustrophobic under water in the ocean.
I love my hot pink & purple snorkel gear
We saw some really big sea turtles
And a few little fishies
.:Shopping, Eating, Etc:.
It was so fun going to all of the little shops and malls
Love Betsey Johnson

Eating lunch at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.  It was one of our favorite restaurants.  
We also loved a place called Kobe.  It is just like Tepanyaki.  It was delicious!
Cheeseburger in Paradise
We have come up with the conclusion that in Hawaii, convertibles are necessary

After looking through all of our pictures I decided that I really love and miss Hawaii, and we can't wait to go back again someday... someday.
