Waimea Canyon
John and I at the scenic overlook of Waimea Canyon
Hiking up the backside of the canyon
The falls that we couldn't swim in
The Kalalau ValleyWelcome to my blog! What better a time to start a blog than when you're in Hawaii. John and I are currently in Kauai on vacation and I thought I'd post some pics to make you all jealous. We are having a great time! Kauai is a beautiful island, very lush and tropical. Everywhere you look there is something beautiful to see. We have been keeping busy with lots of hiking through some of the most breathtaking areas you have ever seen.
On day 1: Saturday, we went to the west side of the island to the top of Waimea canyon. It is like a more colorful and smaller version of the grand canyon. There is red dirt everywhere, you get it all over yourself. There is a scenic overlook and then we decided to hike up further to try to get to some waterfalls we read about. The hike up was pretty steep, but the view was well worth it. When we got to the falls we were disappointed that you couldn't swim in them, they had a bacteria we think was called leprocytis, not something we wanted. Overall, a good hike. Then we hopped the car and drove a little further on the west bound road to get a view of the Kalalau Valley. What a beautiful thing to see, pictures don't do it justice. I'll be posting more tomorrow for now we are exhausted and going to sleep.

hey christy lee,
Thanks for the great pictures. It was especially nice to see you and John. I miss you, glad you are having such a good time. Great job keep them coming. Talk to you soon. Love, mom and dad :)
I love the pictures and I'm so glad that you two are having fun! Keep the blogs coming (I mean, I gotta have something to read while I'm sitting here in Kansas - can you hear how jealous I am)!
Obviously, you know that last comment was from me and not Adam. Oops!
Did Delaney buy those shorts for the trip, or did he already own them? My money's on the latter.
Is that the same guy you were with the last time you were in Hawaii? He seems to have shrunk by about half. You should have that checked out.
Oh yeah, and you've gotten more comments on this one blog than John has gotten on ALL of his!
Well...it does look "ok" there, based on your pics. It's no Wisconsin though, that's for sure. Ok- so really I'm jealous out of my mind right now because you guys are currently in paradise!!! Hope you guys are having as much fun as you look like you are in the pics. Keep 'em coming :)
