We woke up to a beautiful day! We grabbed some breakfast and headed off to Po'ipu Beach for some snorkeling. Conner loves to snorkel. He dives way down and brings up all sorts of stuff from the ocean floor. He is turning into our little fish.
Victor and Conner snorkeling.
My Mom didn't have any meetings so she went with us and helped watch the kids so Vic and I could go out snorkeling together. I forget how pretty everything is. All of the colors on the little fish and the water is just amazing.
My Momma. She is going to love me for posting this picture. Love ya Mom!
Totally something you wouldn't expect to see at the beach. . . except when you are in Kauai. I guess after their hurricane in '92 the chickens started to take over the island and you see them everywhere! I think the rooster in this picture is Chicken Joe from Surf's Up. ;)Later that afternoon we did some shopping and went to Roy's for dinner. Roy's had great atmosphere but the food was so-so. It had great reviews in all of my books, but I left a little unimpressed.
We didn't have any huge events for day 6, but just like all of the other days, we had a great time!
Day 7
It rained off and on for a bit in the morning. So, we decided it would be a good time to get our stuff rounded up and get some packing done. After the rain cleared off we went down to the beach and lagoon one last time.
Trying to catch geckos one last time.
Me and Victor.
The boys trying to find crabs. Also, the only time we could get Zack to wear a hat!
A little crab in the bucket. Can you see him? He is on the right where the sand meets the bucket.
Great photography by Conner- Erin aren't you proud?
The boys had great fun running around catching the little white baby crabs and collecting them in Conner's bucket. Watching them do this reminded me of when we lived in WA. Conner's favorite thing to do was go to Stielicome Beach and collect the baby crabs. It made miss WA! Conner was such a beach bum, that is what he wanted to do every day. . . and so we did!After a little while my Mom and Dad came down to get us and we went off to do some site seeing. We ventured over to the East side of the island and went to the Kilauea Lighthouse and Wailua Falls.
Kilauea Lighthouse was beautiful! It was seriously postcard perfect. Actually, Victor took a picture and it is now his screen saver on his phone! ha ha Zack and Mace were asleep, so we took turns getting out to observe. I can't say the little guys would remember it anyway.
Kilauea Lighthouse.
Next up were the falls. They were so pretty, defiantly not a site we get to see all of the time.
Wailua Falls.Day 7
The flight home. :( Does anyone ever want to go home after a vacation? Especially a Hawaiian vacation? We are thinking Maui for next year. . . with no kids! I guess we will see.
Mace was the only happy one to be flying home.Aloha Hawaii! Til' next year!
