Public service announcement: Always sunblock your butt when snorkeling.
We have returned from a magical, warm, fantastic, relaxing, chicken-filled week in Hawai’i.
We saw lava flowing from a volcano, five miles away:
Five hours after we left, they closed this trail down due to an earthquake swarm. A few days later, magma oozed out of a new place on the volcano, while the flow pictured above began to dissipate. Pele loves me.
The next day, I went snorkeling, which adventure prompted the PSA above. I have dropped off the underwater cameras at the photo lab, and hope to have fish photos for you soon.
Two views from the terrace of our hotel on Kauai,
where I managed to get some knitting done.
Spent a lovely afternoon at the beach,
There were high points,
(High! Pointy!)
and low points,
(Low! Pointy!)
I even loved the ubiquitous chickens.
Full set of photos here.

Beautiful! I’m so glad you had a great time – you deserved it. Sorry you had to leave, but we would have missed you if you had stayed.

Ooooooh, vacation!
I’ve heard of “vacations”. One of these days I’ll have to try one out myself. Glad you had a great time, nudist and all!

Were you at the Grand Hyatt in Poipu? It’s right near where my grandparents live. So pretty there!

We went to Kauai for our honeymoon – brought back happy memories just looking at your post and photos. Where did you stay? We stayed in a condo on the east side, in Kapaa. Thanks for the mini mind vacation!

Dina pegged it – the Grand Hyatt in Poipu. Dina, do you think your grandparents would adopt me, maybe?

Kaua’i is my favorite place on earth. Sigh.
