days 5 and 6

Summing up our last two days in Kauai before we headed to Maui. I wasn't pregnant when we planned our trip and with the way I felt in May, I was worried about how great I was going to feel on our vacation. But I survived the PICU by eating a whole lot of crackers through rounds every day and started feeling a ton better around week 10, just in time to head to Hawaii week 11! Praise God for that blessing =)

Day 5:
We started out driving absolutely as far as we could around to the Northwest side of the island where the Napali coast starts and runs south. Played around there in the morning then started making our way back around the coast stopping at beaches and sites along the way. We always had way more on our daily to-do list than we accomplished because we never left one place/beach when we intended to. We loved Secret Beach and spent a good amount of time playing around there. And a side note, Andy seriously was so entertained by all the wild chickens... what are we going to do if we have a boy and i have to keep both of them in line!



Some perspective on how big the waves were at Secret beach:


Day 6: sadly our last day exploring. We spent the morning at Kipu falls playing around. Andy's favorite parts of the trip were places he got to jump off things so I had a hard time getting him to ever leave here. We took a lot of those pictures from the water with our underwater camera so they really aren't very good quality (and of course really none of the underwater shots of all the fish came out... lesson learned.) We at lunch at our place and did more exploring around the south side. That night we went out for a fantastic dinner and officially celebrated 6 years of marriage! super yummy food. We packed up that night and flew over to Maui the next morning.





sometimes more graceful than others...

Awesome pics. I love how the water looks green in one of the waterfall pics.

We'll definitely be consulting you when we go one day.
