My favorite ride at Disneyland is Soarin’ over California. In Kauai my favorite ride is Soarin’ over Kauai. You take a helicopter flight over the island. In about an hour you can see all the sights. Unfortunately this one is much more expensive. At least it lasts longer and you don’t have to wait in [...]

Even though I come from a family who has practically adopted Hawaiian culture as their own, I had no idea Hana existed. Sure, I had heard the phrase “the road to Hana,” but I never knew what it meant. Around every corner (and believe me there were a ton of corners on the long, windy [...]

Thanks to my parents and many of those who blessed us with extra funds during the money dance, we were able to take a helicopter tour of Kauai’s famous Na Pali coastline.

Matt and I have left the beautiful island of Kauai and are settling in on Maui. I must admit, Kauai really won me over with all it had to offer. We did several little day trips and instead of boring you with all the details, I’ll share some pictures. The credit for all these fun [...]

While we absolutely love the Sheraton Resort in Poipu, we didn’t love the noises surrounding our room. While we’ve grown to love these guys:
We didn’t like the increasing construction noise. We checked at the front desk, and the repaving near our room was supposed to stop July 10, but there was no end in sight. [...]

I forgot how difficult journaling can be when on vacation! A lot has gone on in the past few days and it’s stuff we want to remember, so I’ll recap it bit-by-bit.
On Tuesday we finally decided to venture out and see the sights. As it got nearer to sunset time, we raced the sun to [...]

Here’s my second day’s entry from my travel journal:
Aloha from the beach at the Sheraton Resort! Matt and I have explored the grounds; swam in the ocean (rated one of the best in the world!) and pools, which has a water slide; and ate an awesome breakfast at the Shells Restaurant. We also threw a [...]
