KAUA'I FLOWERS







EXPERIENCING KAUA'I: part 2

Rainbow Eucalyptus trees near Kaua'i Lagoons

KIPU FALLS






Humbling photo, but it shows how close I came!
(obviously my butt double did not come to Kaua'i with us)


Aloha! 5:00am (10:00am Chicago time) and I’m wide awake. CA is not too happy with me, but other than stuffing the pillow with his head he maintains his normal good nature (or the appearance of!) and tolerates my slamming and banging.

EXPERIENCING KAUA'I: part 1





4:00am alarm. I don’t even mind that I’ve slept only 3 or so hours. DM is up before 5:00am to drive us to O’Hare for our 5th or 6th trip to Kaua’i. MK comes sleepily down the stairs for some goodbye hugs and kisses. KF is already stirring but too shy this morning for too much attention. We will miss them and the little girls. The past two weeks have been jam-packed with goodness.

We have a convoluted itinerary—
