Friday favorites from Kaua’i

It’s going to be hard to limit myself to a manageable number of favorites this week. I told myself I’d choose a picture a day, but I may have to stretch that to two in some cases.

Friday: On our way to Kauai. I felt it was fitting to read a book about beach life and drink a mai tai.

Saturday: Queen’s Bath. The hike in is a bit treacherous for flip flops, but well worth it. Spectacular! (Note to self: next time wear water shoes.)

Sunday: Mac-nut banana fosters pancakes at Kalypso Bar & Grill. Indescribable! Larry and I shared this order, so we could also eat eggs and bacon.

Monday: The only photo I took was at the hospital, and that was not a favorite! (Larry battled with the ocean and lost. His shoulder separated from his clavicle.)

Tuesday: Kileau Lighthouse. Stunning views. (I’m going to have to come up with some more adjectives if every place we go keeps getting more beautiful than the last.)

Wednesday: Spent the morning snorkeling at Tunnels Beach.

Thursday: Back to Tunnels Beach for more snorkeling and sunbathing. Don’t be jealous of my model shot!
