Can I go back? please . . .

Just thought I'd share a little of the beauty of Kauai with you . . .

Poppy Lilli & Katie look at the Kalalau Valley & part of the cliffs that make up the Na Pali Coast. Probably the most beautiful site I have EVER beheld!

The view from Hanalei Bay pier - the pier was a lot of fun - there were locals all swimming & jumping off the pier into the ocean. Madi really wanted to do it, but she wasn't wearing her swimsuit that day. It's hard to tell, but there's a waterfall on those mountains in the background.

Waimea Canyon - how can such a little island have such a big canyon? That's a waterfall off in the distance on the mid-left side of the picture.

Just a picture of the scenery as we were driving in the car.

The view at Tunnels Beach on the North Shore of Kauai.

Spouting Horn - South Shore of Kauai - a big hole in the rocks that fills with water as the waves come in. The water has no where to go but up. It also makes a loud roaring sound, thus the name, spouting horn. I have a short video (with Madi at the helm) of spouting horn in action that I will put at the end of the post.

The next time we go to Kauai, I want to Kayak on the river. There are several places where you can see a couple of rivers & there are usually lots of people in kayaks - seems like a fun way to see the beauty of Kauai.

Just somewhere we stopped along the road. Amazing!

Overlooking the Hanalei Valley on the North Shore of Kauai. I loved Hanalei! Those are taro fields in the valley.

While in Hawaii, we talked to different locals who would find out we were from Las Vegas & they would tell us things like - "oh we love Vegas, we're going there next week." or - "you're from my favorite place!" We would look at each other & say "why?" Don't get me wrong because we love our home, and it does have its own beauty, at least to us. But certainly there's no beauty contest when it comes to Vegas vs Hawaii - that's like comparing Ms. America to the earwig I saw creeping across my kitchen floor. Well, I guess the Hawaiians aren't coming to Vegas for the scenery, huh?!
