When I go to a restaurant I usually find something I like and order the exact same thing every time.  I am happy with it and I don't want or need anything different.  It's the same way with vacations.  I went to Hawaii for the first time when I was 13 and I was sold.  I really haven't been many places inside or outside the US but seriously if I could go to Hawaii for every vacation for the rest of my life I would be thrilled. 
We just got back from another wonderful trip to Hawaii.  This time we vistied Kauai.  It was amazing.  Todd and I went with my parents.  Our good friends watched our kids so we were able to enjoy many wonderful and relaxing activities.  So I will share some pictures of the place my heart always longs to be:
Dinner at Scotty's in Kapaa
Getting ready for the kalalau hike...
It poured almost the whole time on the hike- we were drenched and so was the camera
The Poly Coast- our view during the hike- The sun came out for about 15 min.
One of the several falls we went to
Wailua river
The beautiful rental house
on our way to the rope swing

Me on the swing
Kilaeua light house

I'm ready to go back now...

Ever since we went so many years back with Grandma and Grandaddy all I have done is anticipated the time when I get to go back. Hawaii is AMAZING. I think I still have a few years ahead of me before that happens. Love the pictures, and how nice that you got to go with out kids, what a treat!

Love the pictures. We wish we could have joined you. Maybe next time. Do you realize the only time I have been is when you were 13 and I was 14. Wow that was ages ago!
