Hawaii!!

So a few weeks ago Heber told me that we were going to Hawaii. I asked when and he said on Sunday! I knew for less then a week that we were going to Hawaii for 10 days. He arranged the babysitting and everything and told me after he got it all arranged. We went with our friends Kevin and Katie. I was really glad because they had been there before and knew all the tricks of staying cheap in Hawaii.

It was the best vacation I have ever been on! I dont have all the pictures here I am going to try to get the rest later.

We went to Kauai which is called the garden island and has many water falls. We did so much site seeing of waterfalls, it was amazing! In Hawaii, its still winter there, so it wasnt as flowerful as i was expecting, but it was still warm and sunny. The ocean was still rough so when we went on our raft trip, we couldnt go into the sea caves because of the swells. But we did see whales which if we were there even a month later, we would not have seen them.

kayaking was really fun once we got the hang of it. it took us a while and Heber was sure our kayak was broken. it wasnt, it was just me. Had no clue what i was doing :)

We had to cross 2 rivers. look at hebers face as i was going to drown in the river. he was just laughing at me. That was a really fun picture to get.

Chickens!!! everywhere! they roamed around free and careless. they were all over the place.

We had such a good time! it was hard to come back. There is a 4 hour time difference there so I was waking up at 4 in the morning there where it would be 8 here. i am still not adjusted back to Utah time.

We also saw coconut trees, banana trees which were so cool!, and orange trees, and papaya, and guava trees. i think there was even an avocado tree.

we rode bikes all over the town, that was so fun! I tried a Hawaiian Ice it was good, and we tried puka dogs, they were awesome! The name was interesting, but the dogs were good!

Trying to say the names of the streets and stores and everything was so fun. It was a really neat experience to be able to go there and learn about the history. It was amazing!
