We were lucky enough to go to Hawaii recently for 9 days!! The island of Kauaui was the perfect paradise. It was so lush and green in some areas, like a tropical rain forest and so sandy and blue at the beach. It was the best of everything. We went with two other couples, our best friends, Cam and Michelle and Brandon and Cassie. Brandon and Cassie have been there several times and we were so fortunate that we didn't have to search around for anything since they guided us around to the best spots....THANKS BRANDON AND CASSIE! We also had the opportunity to stay in a beautifully decorated house just steps from the beach....yeah, I could hear the waves from my bedroom. It was so relaxing, snorkeling, boat rides, laying out, swimming and jumping off waterfalls...and the food, mmmmmmmm. It was an overall tropical paradise experience.

Look at that hottie!
I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!

Eating was always fun since hawaiian food is soooooo good. I'm still craving the yummy hawaiin cuisine. Thanks to Brandon and Cassie we got to experience all the best restaurants. I could go for some chocolate soufflé right about now!!
Our first day heading to the beach!!

Cam and Michelle doing what we all did best...relaxing on the beach baby!!!

Cassie and Michelle took surf lessons with the hot local surf instructor...
WOO HOO!!

Brandon and Cassie kickin' it in the water.

Austin went snorkeling every day. We got to see all kinds of fish and sea-life. The water was perfect, clear and refreshing.

Come on in, the water is great!!!!!!!!

Here it is, the Napali coast on Kauaui. This is the beginning of a long stretch of cliffs, caves and mountains. Gorgeous!

We took a Catamaran tour around the Napali coast. It was bee-utiful!!!! One of the most amazing sites I've ever seen. The napali coast is a protected national park and only accessible by boat or helicopter. It was a 6 hour tour...we got to see and snorkel with hundreds of dolphins, turtles and fish.
