To the South Pacific

H and I decided to cancel our trip to Kauai this year. It's a trip we do every year since we got married. We can't seem to get tired of this place. We've been to 7 of the 8 islands, which include Molokai, Lanai and Niihau and have fallen in love with the Garden isle of all. This year, we decided to see if we can keep ourselves from visiting for once and not miss going and besides we've vacationed in Florida just a few months ago.

Well what do you know? I find out that it's too late to cancel our reservation in our timeshare there, so I guess we ARE going regardless. Oh well, I find myself getting excited for this trip again. Last year's trip was exceptional as we had a family reunion there. It was fun and painful in the pocket at the same time(haha!) but family time is something I don't regret spending money for.

This year, I'd really like to do the Kalalau trail which runs along the Na Pali Coast. It's for experienced hikers and I am not sure if we can manage this feat or maybe even hike to the blue hole. I had major back problems last year which prevented me from doing any hiking at all. There's just too much to do in this island, you cannot seem to run out of activities to do here. The appeal of this island is even more interesting as there were many movies filmed in Kauai like 6 days 7 nights, Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones and a number of Elvis's movies. Hubby says this time we should try not to spend too much money on activities--hmmmm...I WILL try...
