Hawaii 2010

We had the great opportunity to go to Kauai for 10 days in January and February. Les is helping his friend David design his home in Hawaii. It was a unique vacation in that Les would go off to work in the morning and the boys and I would play all day. Les did get to spend some fun time with us but he did put over 600 miles on our rental car traveling around the island many many times. The next couple of posts will share pictures from our trip.Chase getting packed for the trip.

The boys waiting patiently at the airport.


Chase & Rex flying in style. Of course they do not serve any food on the planes anymore so we packed lunches for the boys to eat on the plane.

Rex, Les & Chase riding on the shuttle bus to pick up our car in Hawaii. Rex had packed a pair of shorts in his carry on bag and he changed as quickly as he could. We arrived at night and it was raining very hard. It was a white knuckle drive as Les drove on small unknown roads in a downpour. We were thrilled to arrive at our condo.
Rex, Chase & Les in front of our condo on our first morning in Kauai. We were up early because of the time change. We headed right to the beach which was about 10 minutes walk from the condo.


Ready for the beach.


Our condo for the first part of our trip. There was amazing greenery around the complex.

The bougainvillea on the path outside our door.

The first contact with the ocean. The boys had the best time.


Jumping the first wave.


One happy kid.


This was a monk seal we encountered on the beach. They come up on the beach to sleep. They put yellow tape around them so that they are left alone.

The boys in the water.
