We have not taken a trip for Spring Break in years, so we decided to do it up big this year and head to Hawaii (oh yeah, we were also sick of the snow again!). We spent a glorious week in Kauii. We did a little bit of sightseeing and a lot of laying around the beach and relaxing. The kids tried snorkling, but were a little frightened of the fish and headed back to the beach for massive sand castle construction. Then, we took a helicopter ride to see the island. We were worried about the kids getting sick (as were our fellow passengers). Despite the rain during the flight, it was beautiful. Jack took the worlds most expensive nap during the flight and Olivia did great! Whale watching and a sunset cruise were next. Once the rain stopped (are you sensing a theme here?), it was quite enjoyable, we saw some whales and the sunset. And... no one got sick here either (we do try to see the bright side of things, no punn intended.) We were not so lucky on our hike to Waimea Canyon, after a two mile hike (yes, in the rain) to a lookout point, we saw nothing due to the heavy fog, but it was fun. All in all, it was a fantastic trip. How can spending a week with our family, sipping tropical drinks, on a beautiful island paradise, playing in the sand be bad???
