Trip to Kauai

Since our trip home was very busy with all the visiting we had to get in a little vacation after the vacation. Kauai is an absolutely beautiful island and we enjoyed every minute of our time there. The five days flew by quickly but we managed to see lots and still get in some R&R.

We rented bikes one day and went biking along the 'Coconut Coast'. This is me before I totally biffed on my bike and ended up with two very bloody knees. I have the scars to prove it :) Was still awesome though.

Saw an endangered Monk Seal along the way

Stopped at a lookout on our way to Waimea Canyon

Waimea Canyon is nicknamed the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific"

Loving the view!

Reece snapped a few pictures of me on the balcony before we headed off to dinner

The tree tunnel! So cool driving through

The caves

Beginning our walk up the Na Pali Coast

Beautiful views

Almost at the beach

Time to ditch our runners and go barefoot

The beach was beautiful! It was too bad we didn't wear our swimsuits on the hike.

Our visit to Washington and BC!

At the end of June we headed 'home' for a little over a week to spend time with friends and family. It was such a great visit and definitely not long enough!
