The View from Here

Ah… Kauai.

We were here two years ago and had a great time. I think we did all the touristy stuff that week. Helicopter ride. Driving around both coasts… etc.

Last year we went to Maui, and although beautiful, it doesn\’t match Kauai for beauty. Maui was also way overpriced and I can\’t see going there again just for a vacation.

Anyhow, I don\’t think I\’ve ever been in such need of a vacation and this Island seems like the perfect place to chill out, regroup and re-energize.

We\’re staying at the Marriott resort at Kalapaki Bay and managed to get a 10th floor oceanview room.

We got up very early due to a five-hour time change, grabbed some breakfast and headed for the pool. Just a couple hours in the hot sun started turning me a lovely shade of pink, so we\’re going to take it easy with sun exposure for the first day and do some exploration. Or maybe take a nap.

The pool here is huge, but its only four feet all the way around.

Do I look happy? :-)

More later…
