Roberta and I at Kauai's Waimea Canyon at the end of an hour-long climb. It is known as the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific," and it is spectacular!
A sea turtle at Poipu Beach in Kauai. A week later, we saw several of his relatives while snorkeling off the Maui coast.
That's me enjoying my all-yellow breakfast: Maui Gold pineapple, scrambled eggs, peach yogurt, orange juice, corn muffins, butter and a banana. Wait ... did I say yellow? I meant to say "gold," as in Marquette gold and blue!
Taking a break after diving into Queen's Bath on the north coast of Kauai.
Katie and Ben at a waterfall after hiking through a bamboo forest off the road to Hana.
The happy family on our last day in Hawaii. We got through the week and still seem to like each other!!
Ben and I at a wildlife preserve on Maui.
Roberta and I at the same wildlife preserve.
Roberta snapped this pic of a humpback whale's tail during our snorkel trip off the coast of Maui. Two male whales were battling for the affections of a lady. It was more than just a little cool.
The only thing bad about the vacation: It had to end!

Wow, gorgeous photos! Beats Illinois in the grey dreariness of winter...you remember that, right? :)
ReplyDeleteMy one "visit" to Hawaii was an airplane switch on my way to Okinawa back in the early '70s. It was night, so no scenery to see, and all I remember was that the air smelled of over-ripe pineapples. Ha.
Too many of us do not take the time to go on a real vacation so it's fabulous that you four were able to enjoy the time together - wherever it was! ~Belle
