So, Kauai.....
This is what I got for Christmas this year. A 4 mile hike that ended up being 2-6 inches of mud. What a blast. The only problem was getting back down. These simple sandals are kind of a bummer when your feet are slick with mud. I spent as much time adjusting my feet in the shoes as they kept slipping and rotating. The temperature was right around 80 degrees and the views were spectacular.
We planned to go snorkeling for the morning, but the waves were up and the beach we planned to go to had a really wide riptide. No thanks. I do love that island, though. We stayed in an elcheapo hotel, so internet service was only available further into Kapaa at the coffee shop. Nothing like sitting at a coffee shop petting the cat while my son got his fix of WOW and we got our caffeine buzz.
Every day was low 70's for the low and 80 for the high. Makes you kind of forget why you enjoy living in the Great Northwest. These muddy feet would not quite feel as good in the low 40s...... yikes!
More pictures will be coming as I edit them.
