A visit with sunshine...

Four girls living in Alaska, and one in Ohio decided to take a vacation to Kaua'i, Hawaii. Lucky for four of them, Erin works for Alaska Airlines and could get them all there for almost nothing! Thanks a bunch Erin, the trip to visit the sun and warmth was much appreciated!

The Waimea Canyon was the first location we visited while on the island. 10 miles long, 1 mile wide and more than 3,500 feet deep. It was equally as beautiful as the Grand Canyon in Arizona, just on a smaller scale. And much more green. It was a little cloudy the day we were there, so my pictures are hazy looking!


Erin and Denise at one of the overlooks to the canyon.

And here we are, all five thoroughly enjoying ourselves.

Another fun sight to see, Spouting Horn, where waves rush through a lava shelf and burst through a small opening. We even saw some sea turtles out in the ocean.
